Day 299 – The Cross and the Empty Tomb: Victory In Sacrifice — Mark 14–16 | Bible In A Year (CSB)

3 days ago
10

These final chapters of Mark take us from the Last Supper to the empty tomb. Jesus is betrayed, arrested, and denied by those closest to Him—yet He remains steadfast in fulfilling the Father’s will. We witness His trial, crucifixion, and burial, followed by the astonishing discovery of His resurrection. What seems like defeat becomes the greatest victory in history, proving that God’s power works most fully through self-giving love.

Questions:
1. In the Garden of Gethsemane, Jesus prays, “Not what I will, but what You will.” How does His surrender redefine our understanding of strength?

2. Peter’s denial shows both human weakness and divine grace. What can his restoration teach us about failure and forgiveness?

3. The resurrection transforms despair into hope. How should this reality affect the way we face suffering, loss, and uncertainty today?
