Lesser Lenten Lights – Two Nameless Servants

Preacher:
Passage: Mark 14:12-16

What does the account of Christ sending his two disciples into Jerusalem to find and follow a man carrying a water jug tell us? Why such cryptic directions? Is God really in charge of all the circumstances of your life? And are you ready to open your guest room to Jesus, whenever he asks? While just a handful of verses in Mark's gospel, this account of preparations for the final Passover before the true Lamb of God was sacrificed is full of challenges and encouragements to Jesus' followers today.
