412 Students Podcast

In this episode, we dive into one of Jesus’ most surprising moments. While teaching, He’s told His mother and brothers are looking for Him—but instead of stopping everything, Jesus asks a bold question: “Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?”

Jesus then gives an unexpected answer that changes how we think about family, identity, and what it means to belong. We explore:

• What Jesus meant when He talked about the unforgivable sin

• Why He pointed to His followers and said “Here are my family”

• How doing God’s will makes us part of something bigger than biology

• What this means for students trying to find their place and purpose

Join us as we break down this powerful passage and discover that God’s family is wider, deeper, and more welcoming than we often realize.

When the crowd pressed in on Jesus, people started making all kinds of claims about who He was—and who He was working for. Some said He was out of His mind. Others accused Him of being in league with evil itself. But Jesus’ response cuts straight to the heart: there’s no middle ground in the battle between light and darkness.

In this episode, we dive into Mark 3:20–27 to unpack what Jesus meant when He said, “A kingdom divided against itself cannot stand.” What does that mean for us as followers of Christ? Are we truly standing with Him—or trying to live with one foot in both worlds?

Join us as we challenge ourselves to take a stand, stay united, and live boldly for the Kingdom of God.

📖 In this episode, we dive into Mark 3:13–19, where Jesus calls His twelve disciples — ordinary people chosen for an extraordinary mission. What does it mean to be called by Jesus? How does this moment shape the movement that would change the world?

Join the 412 Students team as we unpack:

• Why Jesus chose these specific twelve

• What their calling teaches us about following Him today

• How God still invites us to step into His mission

💬 Whether you’re new to faith or growing deeper in your walk with Jesus, this conversation will challenge and encourage you to live out your purpose as one of His followers.

In this episode of 412 Students, we dive into Mark 3:1–12 — where Jesus heals a man with a withered hand right in the middle of a synagogue, challenging the religious leaders and revealing His authority over the Sabbath. As the crowds grow and opposition rises, we see the tension building around who Jesus really is and why He came.

Join us as we unpack what this moment shows us about Jesus’ heart for people, His boldness in truth, and what it means to follow Him when it’s not popular.

📖 Scripture: Mark 3:1–12
💬 Big Idea: Jesus has authority over everything — including our traditions, our fears, and our hearts.
🎧 Listen and grow with us as we live out 1 Timothy 4:12 — being examples in speech, conduct, love, faith, and purity.

In this episode, we explore a powerful moment where Jesus challenges the religious leaders about what it really means to honor the Sabbath. As His disciples pluck grain on a Sabbath day, the Pharisees confront Him — but Jesus responds with a bold statement: “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath.”

Join us as we unpack what Jesus is teaching about rest, legalism, and His authority as the Lord of the Sabbath. What does this mean for how we live today — especially in a culture that’s always busy and rarely rests?

Key Themes:

• Jesus' authority over religious tradition

• The heart behind God's commands

• Finding true rest in Christ

Whether you're new to the Bible or growing in your faith, this episode will challenge you to rethink how you view rest, rules, and your relationship with Jesus.
