Traditions, Miracles, and a Bold Declaration | Mark Chapters 7 & 8
In Mark 7 & 8, Jesus challenges empty traditions and reveals what truly defiles a person—the heart. He heals a Gentile woman’s daughter, opens a deaf man’s ears, and feeds 4,000 with compassion. In Chapter 8, Peter boldly declares Jesus as the Messiah, and Jesus begins revealing the path of suffering and the cost of true discipleship.
