The Big Story | Mark 5 - The God Who Stops, Sees, and Raises Up

Scripture: Mark 5 (Week Recap) Est. Runtime: ~8 minutesThis is the wrap-up episode for one of the most layered weeks in the Big Story series.In Day 5, Lisa brings the full arc of Mark 5 into focus — from Jairus's desperate fall at Jesus's feet to the hemorrhaging woman's hidden reach to the quiet Aramaic words spoken in a dead girl's room — and draws out the bigger picture these stories are painting about who Jesus is and what his kingdom actually does.This isn't just a collection of miracles. It's a portrait of a God whose holiness doesn't recoil from what's broken, who refuses to triage between the important and the invisible, and who calls the forgotten daughter and empowers the dead to rise. All of it pointing forward to the cross, where death would have the last word — until the resurrection proved it didn't.Day 5 also connects the week's theme to CF Home's Shop and Serve Day and offers practical ways to carry the posture of Jesus — stop, see, move toward — into everyday life.Live It Out:This Sunday is Shop and Serve Day at CF Home. The posture we bring — stop, see, move toward the person in front of you — is exactly the posture we've seen in Jesus all week.This week: Think about who in your life is carrying the weight of chronic illness, grief, financial hardship, or a situation that just won't resolve. You may not be able to heal them, but you can refuse to let them be invisible. Ask how are you really doing — and stay to hear the answer.Tell the Story: This week's story gives you something real to share — not a platitude, but a picture of a Jesus who stops in the middle of an urgent crowd and says, I see you. You belong to me. Go in peace. Who in your life needs to hear that?Hear the message for this week's devotional on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@ChristFellowshipMcKinneyGet the written devotional at: https://cfhome.org/EGDIf you are in the North Dallas area and would like to join us for services each week, you can find all the information at https://cfhome.org.
