Listen to My Message From Sunday, January 12, 2024
Episode Summary by OpenAI
This Firm Foundation Inspiration Minute talk is titled "Jesus Stood Still" by Dr. Bryan Hudson focuses on Mark 10:46–52, the story of blind Bartimaeus. It highlights:
- Bartimaeus' Faith and Boldness: Despite cultural norms that marginalized disabled and poor people, Bartimaeus cried out to Jesus with faith and desperation, refusing to be silenced.
- Jesus' Compassion: Jesus stopped, defying societal expectations, to acknowledge and dignify Bartimaeus. He healed him, demonstrating that faith moves Him.
- Relevance Today: The story ties into the New Covenant Church's 2025 vision, "Each One Reach One," encouraging believers to pause, notice, and help those in need, especially in a season where societal respect for the marginalized may diminish.
- Call to Action: Followers of Christ are urged to embody Jesus' compassion, standing still for the "least of these" and being instruments of God's love.
