Jesus Meets Us in Our Need (Mark 1:40–45)

When the man with leprosy approaches Jesus, he asks not for explanation but for touch, and Jesus responds with compassion, authority, and action. This sermon explores how Jesus breaks barriers—physical, social, and spiritual—bringing healing that restores dignity and relationship. We'll examine the cost and call of discipleship shown in Jesus’ command to keep the healing private and the man’s testimony that could not be contained. Join us as we reflect on what it means to be seen by Christ, to receive and share his mercy, and to live as a community transformed by healing and sent to testify to God’s work among us.
