Mark 10 | Jesus Teaches the Cost and Crown

Read more about PROJECT23 👉🏼 https://beresolute.org/project23/ What if following Jesus means giving up the very things you treasure most? Mark 10 challenges us to rethink greatness, wealth, and leadership. Summary In Mark 10, Jesus confronts cultural assumptions about marriage, leadership, and riches by pointing us back to God’s original design and heart. He elevates the value of humility, surrender, and childlike trust while exposing the idols we cling to. Ultimately, Jesus teaches that true greatness in His kingdom begins with costly surrender, not worldly gain. Reflection & Small Group Discussion Questions 1.
