Some have called The Gospel According to Mark a passion narrative with a long introduction, acknowledging that Mark gives a disproportionate amount of time to the final week of Jesus’ life. This focus will allow us to emphasize the cross and the fact that Jesus came to seek and save the lost. All in all, Mark acts as a very comprehensive discipleship manual that exalts the servant King, Jesus and invites us to follow him.

Prayer is the foundation of every significant work of God. It is through prayer that we engage with the Spirit of God, partnering with Him in His redemptive work for our city and inviting His healing power into our lives. At The Way Church, we are committed to being a people of prayer—through times of personal prayer, weekly prayer gatherings, and prayer ministry in our services. Once a year, we set aside 21 days to pray in unity; practicing fasting, contemplation, and intercession as a community. We invite you to join us for 21 Days of Prayer during the month of January.

Throughout church history Christians have called this season advent. Advent is a carved out season that helps us do two primary things. Firstly, we are invited to once again reflect on the incarnation of Christ. We take time to remember when Jesus was born over 2000 years ago. As John writes, we remember when God became flesh and dwelt among us. And then secondly, this season is about anticipating the fact that this same Jesus who was born, who lived, died and rose again, is coming back. Advent is about looking forward - not just to another Christmas morning but to the moment when Christ returns to make all things new.
