Title: Rejection of the King
Text: Mark 6:1-29
Outline:

• The people struggled reconciling what they knew about Jesus and the things they had heard and seen from Jesus.
• The people rejected Jesus because of their past experiences and prejudices.
• Chrisitans are those who admit thier moral inability to please God and rely on Jesus for thier relationship with God.

Jesus sends the disciples out:

1. In community (vs. 7)
2. Above reproach (vs. 8)
3. As servants (vs. 13)

• John the Baptist is an example of being a servant, yet speaking the truth in love.
• King Herod is an example of how NOT to respond to rejection.
• Herodias is an example of why Chrisitans will bring rejection.
