The Example of the Kingdom - Jordan Baker | Jesus: A Journey Through Mark |
The Example of the Kingdom - Jordan Baker March 1, 2026 Forest City Church In our second week of looking at the book of Mark, Jordan shared how Mark introduces the kingdom of God by first introducing John the Baptist. Before Jesus begins proclaiming the good news, John embodies what this new kingdom looks like in everyday life. His life reveals three defining characteristics of kingdom people: they understand they are part of a greater story, they live differently from the surrounding culture, and they carry a posture of humility. In contrast to Rome’s power-driven, self-promoting values, John lives simply, points away from himself, and prepares the way for Jesus. The early church had no buildings or influence — only lives that aligned with their message. The invitation for us is to consider: Does our life reflect the kingdom we claim to belong to?
