07.21.24 - Mark XIV - A Fresh Start

We continue our journey through the Gospel of Mark and today come upon one of the most dramatic stories in Jesus’ ministry in Mark 5:1-20. A man possessed by a “legion” of demons is freed from his bondage, cleansed and made whole, and then commissioned by Jesus to tell the news of “what the Lord has done for you.” We find in this man a pattern for our own lives, as Jesus’ kingdom (on earth as it is in heaven) overcomes that of darkness; as we are made new by His steadfast love with a fresh start; and as we are commissioned to bear witness to others of what the Lord has done for us.
