7: Teaching Disciples – Part 1 – Singing with Understanding
It is wonderful to travel through John Mark’s life and see the beautiful story climax with
Christ The Lord Is Risen Today – Hymn 166, therefore
Go, Preach My Gospel – Hymn 378. These two hymns give us a purpose all during this quarter to hasten the coming of our Lord Jesus. May you enjoy these hymns for your theme hymn from which to choose. 
Sabbath afternoon’s introduction raises the questioning for each of us to follow Jesus, just as He was asking each person he came in contact with in the Bible verses in Mark. Can I heartily sing all this week
Hymn 623 – I Will Follow, Thee my Saviour?
A number of times this week, the teaching of Jesus was about His death to come on the cross. Here I can instruct myself to sing
Jesus, I My Cross Have Taken – Hymn 325 so that I may follow You.
As with the father in Tuesday’s study saying “I believe, help my unbelief!” I wish to be singing
I Do Believe – Hymn 486.
Jesus’ illustration on Wednesday gives us two beautiful hymns:
Jesus, Friend of Little Children – Hymn 543 and A Child Of The King – Hymn 468.
lease continue to search the scriptures this week to be blessed and to bless many others.
To learn unknown hymns, you will find the accompaniment music for each one at: https://sdahymnals.com/Hymnal/
Another great resource is for when there is a hymn you wish to sing but can’t find it in your hymnal. Go to https://www.sdahymnal.org/Search and in the search bar type a special word in that is in the hymn. I am sure you will be amazed at the help you will be given.
2 Timothy 2:15 KJV – “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”

7: Teaching Disciples – Part 1 – Teaching Plan
Key Thought: In Mark chapters 8-10, Jesus teaches the disciples about His journey. He gives special instructions on discipleship, who He is, and where He is going. He also confronts us today with the cost and benefit of following Jesus.
