Five years ago this week, Mark had a sudden health incident that required emergency surgery.  In today's episode of Mondays with Mark, he'll share a brief reflection on that experience as well as some thoughts on the "spiritual surgery" we undergo at the hand of the Master Surgeon.  His scalpel, the Bible, is incredibly precise!

We all know that memorizing Scripture is important.  It's one of the spiritual disciplines that helps us grow deeper in God's Word and equips us for spiritual warfare! But sometimes it's not easy, is it?  And it seems to grow more difficult each year as we age!  Can you relate?

In today's episode, Mark encourages us to take a step BEYOND memorizing Scripture.  As a side benefit, you'll be amazed at how much Scripture you retain when you do!

Have you ever been in a situation where you needed instructions in order to do something the right way?  Of course!  Instructions are invaluable!  Thankfully, God gave us instructions to help us live life the "right way" -- a life that is honorable and pleasing in HIS sight!  Learn more in today's episode below...

The "self-help" industry is booming!  There are thousands of books, online courses, conferences, and programs to help you become happier, healthier, more successful, thinner, etc.  One thing they all have in common?  They require YOU to have the power to accomplish their promises.

But as we all know, we can't do the Christian life on our own...we need help!  In today's special episode of Mondays with Mark, we'll discuss the help that God provides and then Mark will share briefly about our new Bible Study that begins THIS week!  We hope you will join us, either in person or remotely!

We all represent someone or something -- perhaps a parent or a spouse, perhaps a group or a club, or perhaps an employer.  As believers, one thing we all have in common is that we represent God to those around us!

In today's episode, Mark's daughter, Kristie Lipper, challenges us to consider just WHO we represent and HOW we represent Him.

What is the Gospel?  If you were asked that question, how would you respond?  In today's episode, Mark considers what the Bible describes as the "Gospel" message and what makes it unique from "good messages" that sometimes water it down.

Question: Do you have a life verse?  What about a life song?  Music can be a powerful tool to help us remember the truths found in God's Word. 

In Deuteronomy 32, Moses gave the Israelites a song to remind them of God's work in their lives -- His deliverance of them, His love for them, how He protected them, etc.  The song also challenged them for their sinful choices and their rebellion against God.  The song would serve not only as a reminder, but also as a witness against them.  They couldn't claim ignorance any longer!

In today's episode, Mark talks about the importance of having a life song and gives one of his favorites as an example.
