Introduction: Might is Right
Encounter Schoolies: see it all the time. 2 fellas sizing each other up, until the fight is on. Only winner is the one still standing. Swaggers off, obviously the winner. Might is right.

Brother / Sister: Cycle of hurt. One hurts so hurts back. On it goes, not stopping until one sticks in the final blow- the hurt that silences the other. A foul kind of victory.

Passage: Mark 14:66-72

Message: Overcoming Despair in Times of Failure

Theme: The Consuming Passion

I want to talk about something we are well aquainted with but not on good terms with - FAILURE.

Failure is common to all people, not just those who look and sound like they've failed!

Failure is common to those who admit it and those who don't.

Failure is common to the good people and the bad people of this world.

Intro to the series
Each of the 4 historical accounts about Jesus slow down the week before Jesus dies, crucified as a criminal on a roman cross.
