In Mark 1, these surprising moments reveal the heart of the gospel — a Savior who stands in our place and sets us free from living for approval.

And this comes not by pretending we have it all together, but by being honest about our shortcomings and turning to Him for approval and grace.

As we zoom out the biblical story, we see that Exodus 17 is not about a random rock in the wilderness, but about Jesus. Jesus is the Son of God, the bread of life, and the Rock that was struck with the blow of justice so we rebels could find ourselves swept up in a story that leads to eternal and overflowing gratitude to God.
