August 30, 2026 Overcoming Unbelief | Mark 9:14-29

Today, we will be reflecting on Mark 9:14-29, Overcoming Unbelief. We live in a world in which we need to be on guard against the false narratives with which we are inundated, especially through social media. We are well advised not to believe everything we hear and see. BUT this scepticism and unbelief can affect our faith! Many, including in our own communities, seemingly have abandoned "the faith that was once entrusted to God's holy people" (Jude 3). A good way NOT to allow scepticism to turn into unbelief is through the prayer we find in Mark 9:24: "I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief".
