Failing Forward (Part 26)

Passage: Mark 14:26-52

Preacher: Tim Badal

Series:Man at Work

Detail:

This great reversal from failure to faithfulness involves:

1.  Understanding the slippery slope of failure

     This is seen when we are:

          a.  Overlooking our weakness
          b.  Over-confident in our will power
          c.  Caught off-guard in times of war
          d.  Opposing evil with wrong weapons

2.  Following in the Savior's footsteps

     Jesus shows us how to:

          a.  Press on in times of difficulty
          b.  Pray in times of despair
          c.  Put God's will over our desires
          d.  Proclaim truth with great determination
          e.  Persevere when all others desert God
