An Introduction to the Gospel of Mark
What We Can Learn About Jesus the Messiah
In the early day of my faith, I found myself profoundly changed the more that I learned about Jesus and experienced him in my life. At the time, I didn’t have the understanding to put into words what was happening, but I found that Jesus would step into every aspect of my life and mix things up.
When I came to know Jesus, I was a partying college student, who was desperately trying to find himself. I would throw myself into school, into parties, into relationships full force and when things got hard, it would be devastating.
Then, Jesus enters the scene, and my whole life was mixed up.
My identity was starting to transform from wild frat guy to something completely new. I related to partying differently. The way I approached other students, my school work, and relationships with the opposite sex changed so much that people around me were unsure what had happened.
The more and more I read about Jesus, the more and more my life was changing. I couldn’t explain it very well at the time. Yet, he was transforming me from the inside and it was showing on the outside.
