Listen "Living by Faith (Mark 5:21-43)"
Episode Synopsis
Sometimes the stories we tell ourselves can get in the way of what is actually possible. We sometimes assume our problems are not big enough compared to what else is happening in the world. Or, we may believe we're not worthy or deserving of God's love and care. Maybe you think if you're honest about what you've been struggling with others will judge you or think you're weak.
These kinds of stories keep us at arm's length from the help and care we need. They can become barriers that keep us from experiencing a good and loving God and the care and compassion of those who love and care for us.
The stories we see in Mark 5 paint illustrate that Jairus and the woman who touched the hem of Jesus’ garment did not let their circumstances keep them from God. They chose to believe the stories they had heard about Jesus—that he could bring them good news.
