Simple (Week 5) Simple Faith

In Mark 10, we meet a blind beggar sitting on the side of the road while Jesus is passing by. His name means “son of honor” or “son of worth” — yet he’s living like a beggar. In this message, we walk through the story of Blind Bartimaeus and explore the tension between who God says we are and how we often see ourselves. What does it mean that he threw off his cloak? Why does Jesus ask such a specific question — “What do you want me to do for you?” And why is it sometimes easier to believe in Jesus than it is to ask Him for something specific? Healing wasn’t the end of Bartimaeus’ story — following was. But following began with an honest answer to the question, “What do you want me to do for you?”   From Sunday 02.08.26
