Finders Weepers, Losers Keepers: Jesus’s Radical Call in Mark

Join us as we dive deep into Mark 8:27-38, where Jesus delivers one of the most challenging messages in Scripture. Why did Jesus call Peter "Satan" after his bold confession? What does it mean to deny yourself, take up your cross, and lose your life for Christ? This in-depth expository preaching unpacks the cost of true discipleship and the paradox of gaining eternal life by letting go of this world. Perfect for those who love the Bible and crave transformative teaching! If you enjoy the episode, please consider subscribing to the podcast and leaving a 5-stars rating.

Since childhood, I've been drawn to the beauty and power of expository preaching—opening Scripture verse by verse and applying it to real life. After graduating from Moody Bible Institute, I spent the next 27 years serving as a youth pastor, senior pastor, church planter, and host of the Food For Your Soul radio broadcast. Along the way, I also earned a Master of Sacred Literature and a Doctor of Religious Studies. For more content from D. Richard Ferguson, visit TreasuringGod.com.
