Sharon Doran leads a study of Mark 9:30–10:27, where Jesus twice predicts his suffering and resurrection and calls his disciples to humility and service.
She explains how Christ’s promise to be "with you always" is realized through the seven sacraments — a new "rainbow" of grace — and contrasts ego-driven ambition with the humility of true discipleship.
The episode closes with Jesus’ teaching about receiving children and a reflection on Our Lady of Guadalupe and Juan Diego as powerful examples of humble faith and the Church’s mission to bring Christ to all.
