Mark 10
Open your Bibles to the Gospel of Mark, chapter 10. I want to read a familiar story. I am a little hesitant at times to announce a text as familiar as this one.

As far as I know, I am the only one in the world who has this kind of collection. It is something I started collecting a long time ago. It's one reason I love to watch professional sports on television because in listening to the commentators you can add a lot of new trophies to your collection i ...
