On the Way: The Gospel of Mark

Mark 14:43-72 // Godly Sorrow


“Follow me, as I follow Christ.”

-Paul (in 1 Corinthians 11:1)

-The goal of all believers


*Question for Today: How might Peter understand this at the end of Mark 14?


1. Follow Jesus as Savior and Lord


Notice how differently Jesus acts and responds.

  • Why? Deep trust in God’s Word and Plans.
  • Doesn’t need to justify or defend himself
  • 1 Peter 2:21-24


Key Questions in Mark: 

  • Who is Jesus? What did He come to do?
  • “For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” [Mark 10:45]


2. Learn from Peter’s Failure and Response


  • “Godly grief produces a repentance that leads to salvation without regret, whereas worldly grief produces death.”  [2 Corinthians 7:10]
  • Life isn’t defined by our darkest seasons or worst mistakes.
  • Life is defined by what Jesus did on His darkest day and in the days after.


The Steps of Godly Grief

  1. Remember
  2. Repent
  3. Refocus


The Results of Godly Grief

  1. Salvation without Regret
  2. Jesus redeems our Brokenness
  3. People connect with our Humility
  4. Able to Serve and Love Others


Great is His Faithfulness!
