Sermon Updates
“On the other side of the spectrum is Bartimaeus who embodies everything we find uncomfortable and unattractive in this world…Yet, he is lifted up as the kingdom hero, the model of faith in the kingdom of God in this gospel…Will we give away everything to follow Jesus? Are we more desperate for Jesus then the next meal? The job promotion? Being respected? Are we willing to endure any kind of social persecution and rebuke to get more of Jesus?” – Chris Rattay
