When Desperation Meets Faith (4/13/26)

When everything else fails, where do you turn? In this message, When Desperation Meets Faith, we explore the powerful story from Mark 5:21–34 of a woman who had tried everything—spent everything—and was left completely exhausted. In one final, desperate act, she reached out to Jesus… and everything changed. This sermon challenges us to examine where we place our hope, why we often treat God as a last resort, and what it truly means to live with a faith that reaches for Him first. It’s a reminder that while our brokenness can spread, so can God’s grace—and that encountering Jesus may expose us, but it ultimately leads to healing and new life. If you’ve ever felt worn out, stuck, or like you’re running out of options, this message will encourage you to stop waiting—and start reaching.
