  • Summary

  • One of the Gospel of Mark's great themes is discpleship and suffering. What Mark often does is ask us if we are willing to take up our cross and follow Jesus, the one who came not to be served but to serve. Here, in chapter 3, Jesus appoints the 12 disciples, reconstituting Israel around himself. In doing so he is making a polical, social, economic, relational statement, claim - a claim that touches on all of one's life! - that he is Lord of all. So, we don't just come to him for what he can give us, but becuas he is Lord. Mark then gives us various responses: He's crazy, he's demonic, people are hardhearted against him and yet some will do the will of God and be his brothers and sisters and mothers. What will your response be?
