The brothers James and John are self-absorbed and do not understand what they ask for - "Grant us to sit, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your glory." This request follows Jesus' third prediction of his passion. Have they not been listening? This encounter is yet another episode in Jesus' ongoing struggle to teach the disciples the significance of the Kingdom of God being near. Join us Sunday as we continue our discussion of Mark's gospel and Jesus' teaching of Discipleship. See you Sunday, in person or online!
