Series: Then Came Jesus

Mark 6:1-6
I. THE REASON FOR HIS VISIT
II. THE AMAZING REACTION TO HIS VISIT
III. THE RESULTS OF HIS VISIT
This morning we want to continue our study in the gospel of Mark so I want to invite your attention to Mark Chapter 6 as we begin our reading today with Verse 1. I want to speak today on "Limiting the Power of God".
