Synopsis "Rethink Everything You 'Know' About Jesus"
Who is Jesus, really? You may know the stories. You may know the verses. You may have followed Jesus for years. But what happens when familiarity with Jesus keeps us from seeing Him clearly? Rethink Everything You 'Know' About Jesus invites you on a fresh journey through the Gospel of Mark to rediscover the person, teachings, compassion, authority, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Pastor Landon Pickering walks through Mark's fast-moving Gospel with one central question in mind: What does the life of Jesus reveal about who He is, and what does it actually mean to follow Him? Along the way, you'll explore: Why Jesus consistently moved toward broken and overlooked people What His miracles reveal about His authority and compassion Why He challenged religious pride and empty tradition What Jesus taught about faith, greatness, sacrifice, and discipleship Why the cross stands at the center of the Christian faith How the resurrection changes the way we live today What it means to move beyond knowing about Jesus to truly following Him This isn't an academic commentary or a collection of complicated theological arguments. It's an accessible, Scripture-centered journey designed to help you encounter Jesus with fresh eyes. Each chapter connects the Gospel of Mark to everyday faith and concludes with a Rethink Challenge that turns reflection into practical action. Whether you're a longtime Christian wanting to deepen your relationship with Jesus, a newer believer learning what discipleship looks like, or someone exploring Christianity and asking who Jesus really is, this book gives you a place to begin. Because eventually, every reader of the Gospels must answer the same question: Who do you say Jesus is? Open the Gospel of Mark. Look again. And prepare to Rethink Everything You 'Know' About Jesus.
