Mark's Jesus – The Danger of Wealth 04/06/2025

Mark's Jesus – The Danger of Wealth There is a tremendously challenging and appropriate teaching from Jesus when He encounters a man of means who wants to follow Him. As American Christians, we should lean all the way in to this conversation. /episode/index/show/graceraleigh/id/36039240

This Sunday, we will pause and spend our morning worshipping together. The beauty in corporate worship is not only the songs we sing, but the fact that we sing them together. We hope you’ll join us as we declare and celebrate the greatness of our God and all He has done for us. /episode/index/show/graceraleigh/id/33775132
