The Longer Ending of Mark | Mark 16:9-20

Guest speaker Mike Hamby wraps up our series in the Gospel of Mark with a deep dive into one of the most debated passages, Mark 16:9–20. With warmth, clarity, and a touch of Appalachian humor, he helps us understand the role of textual criticism and affirms the reliability of Scripture. More importantly, he shows how even difficult texts ultimately point us to the good news of Jesus, the serpent-slaying, soul-saving Son of God.

From the garden of Eden to the island of Malta, from Eve’s fall to Paul’s survival, this message draws a clear line to Christ, who invites us not to take hold of fruit or serpents, but to take hold of Him. And when we do, we find He has already taken hold of us.

Listen in, be encouraged, and consider: What are you taking hold of today?
