The Invitation

Sermon Description

In this week's sermon, Pastor Jeff Wheeler walks us through Mark 5:21-34 to provide an example of how a woman, desperate for healing, barged to the front of a crowd to just touch Jesus' robe, in hopes it would be enough to relieve her from sickness. Throughout the sermon, you'll hear examples from the Bible of people going to extreme lengths to move toward Jesus and access the power He was given by the Father. Our hope through this message is that you would be motivated to draw closer to Jesus, knowing, He is the healer of all.

Series Overview

In the Gospel of Mark, we encounter Jesus teaching, healing, confronting, and calling His followers to take part in His mission. Whether through miracles, parables, or encounters with sinners and outcasts, Jesus continually invites people to a new way of living and being, to a life of faith and surrender to God's purposes.

This series is a call to respond to Jesus—not just to hear about Him, but to follow Him, to be transformed by Him, and to invite others into the same journey. Throughout Mark's account of Jesus' life, we see Jesus extending an invitation to people of all walks of life to experience the radical love, power, and truth of God's kingdom. This invitation is not one to be taken lightly; it demands a response.
