Reimagined Part I: Baptism

"Reimagined: Baptism" – Mark 1:1-11
Part I of the sermon series, "Reimagined."

Sermon by Dr. George C. Anderson from Rally Day Sunday, September 12, 2021. "The moment of Jesus’ baptism at the beginning of Mark’s Gospel has the shape of Jesus’ ultimate destination in the Gospel; the shape of the cross. . . . During the rest of the story of Mark’s Gospel, the vertical love of God for Jesus shines horizontally as Jesus teaches, heals, and sacrifices for others. This love which seems uniquely for Jesus ends up being love shown through Jesus for all."
