spiritual blindness

Me Here’s something you might not know about me, when I came into my faith journey, I had a set of expectations. One of those expectations was that God wasn’t fun. Consequently, I found my original pursuit of God to be not fun. Not b/c God wasn’t fun, but b/c was I taught as a child that I could have……

The middle story, Mark 8:22-26, the blind man episode, is an illustration of the process that the disciples are experiencing. It is not so much a story about Jesus’ healing as it is about a man’s seeing. He only sees partially at first, as do the disciples. Then he sees clearly, as do the disciples. So the blind man episode is really an interruption in the flow of a section about the disciples’ understanding of Jesus. It provides a real-life illustration of what was occurring in the lives of the disciples.

Jesus takes the place of torture in our lives and redeems them to be a place of testimony and healing.

There are two parts to our Gospel text. In the first, Jesus tells his disciples of the suffering and death that awaits him in Jerusalem. In the second, Bartimaeus, the blind beggar obtains his sight from Jesus. In the first part, we see the lack of faith in the disciples, who are unable to understand…

This Sunday is called Quinquagesima, meaning fifty days until Easter. Our theme is Sola Fide, by faith alone. The Scriptures often present the contrast between sight and faith. We tend to believe what we see, but the Gospel invites us to believe what we hear. In other words, Christians learn to see with…
