This is a story of faith without words and forgiveness that doesn’t come cheap. Desperate men bring their paralyzed friend to Jesus and find themselves having to break through a roof to reach him! The paralyzed man was looking for healing but ended up receiving something unexpected. Why are we talking about a man being lowered through a roof? And what does any of it have to do with you and me? That’s what we’ll explore. 

We’ll take the next eight weeks and walk through the book of Mark. It’s a short, fast paced and action-packed account of Jesus’ life and ministry. Every turn of the page offers something profound to consider.
