Big Crowds

Big Crowds

In Jesus day, the crowds of people who followed Him were mind boggling. This passage gave me cause to pause. Mark writes that the crowds were so large that Jesus and His disciples “were not even able to eat.”

Why did so many people gather around Jesus? What was it about Him that drew people to Himself in such large numbers?

As you spend time with Jesus today, ponder those questions. 

Then ask yourself, “why do I believe in Jesus.” If given the opportunity, how would you “defend” your beliefs? This seems like an easy question until you’re face to face with a person who doesn’t believe and they have “receipts.” What are you going to say? Here’s today’s Bible verse. Enjoy. 

Mark 3:20

20 Then Jesus entered a house, and again a crowd gathered, so that he and his disciples were not even able to eat.
