Tonight we are going to be in
How many of you in here have your own cell phone?
How many of you WANT one?
I got my first cell phone when I was 18.
It was prepaid and you could only talk for as many minutes as you paid for.
The few friends that I had who also had cell phones usually had to turn their phones off until 7pm each day.
Anyone know why?
Because nights and weekends were free.
They didn’t count against your plan.
If you went over your plan you had to pay extra.
Now, keep in mind, these phones had very limited capability.
You could call, text, and some had mobile email...but not many.

[PICTURES OF OLD CELL PHONES RAMPING UP TO CURRENT IPHONES]
Cell phones have come a long way…for many they have replaced computers!
My problem is that I really don’t like my phone anymore.
It’s an iPhone 6s and apple has released 5 new lines of phone since mine came out.
My phone is old and familiar.
It doesn’t have any of the newest bells or whistles.
Now if you handed me the first cell phone I ever had and made me use that for a month I would gladly take my iPhone back!
But as it is, I’m just sort of bored with what my iPhone can do.
Tonight we are continuing our study of Mark.
Mark starts - “The beginning of the Gospel”
Jesus first words- “The time has come, repent and believe”
Jesus first words- “The time has come, repent and believe”
Jesus calls - “follow me and become like me, I’ll make you fishers of people in a world of calamity”
My context from last week!
Jesus shows - “power demonstrated of the inbreaking kingdom.
Demons, Mothers, and Lepors”
Jesus explains - that our real problem is sin “Man of a mat with a desperate faith.
The most fundamental problem is the one of sin”
Jesus calls - “follow me and become like me, I’ll make you fishers of people in a world of calamity”
Jesus loves - people who don’t deserve it...just like you and me.
Our response should be to love people who me may feel like they don’t deserve it.
The book of Mark was written in a time when Christians were facing high levels of stress.
Through two parallel stories, Mark gives the remedy for dealing with the stressful times in our lives.

Last week we talked about...
Tonight we are looking at 3 episodes from .
We are going to see how your view of Jesus and how you interact with Him can determine how active He is in your life.
We are going to see 3 responses to Jesus and who gets healed and who doesn’t.
I. Jarius is important, he is no regular dude...
A. he was among the same group that wanted Jesus dead a few weeks ago.
Not saying he wanted Jesus dead, the text doesn’t tell us that.
But he was associated with those who wanted Jesus dead...
B. Now I’m not saying he wanted Jesus dead, the text doesn’t tell us that.
But he was associated with those who wanted Jesus dead...To fall at the feet of Jesus and beg was humiliating to say the least.
Would he have done that if he didn’t really believe that Jesus was capable of doing something.
He took a risk by going to Jesus.
B. To fall at the feet of Jesus and beg was humiliating to say the least.
C. Would he have done that if he didn’t really believe that Jesus was capable of doing something.
He took a risk by going to Jesus.
II.
The women with bleeding...
A. was an outcast.
She was unclean, not allowed to worship in the synagogue, any person she touched became unclean immediately, if she was ever married she was more than likely divorced by this point.
A. was an outcast.
She was unclean, not allowed to worship in the synagogue, any person she touched became unclean immediately, if she was ever married she was more than likely divorced by this point.
B. I’d say she was hopeless at this point.
C.
She obviously had heard about Jesus and she had one last hope, that He could do what no one else had been able to do...heal her.
III.
Their stories intersect… A man who everyone would have respected, noticed and maybe even wanted to be him and a women who nobody would want to be, most people would say she has little to no value to society.
But they both seek Jesus.
Further evidence that Jesus is for everyone!
A. Jarius got their first, he was more important, male, religious elite but Jesus waits.
B. The women was unclean, unwelcome, unwanted, and thought she could go unnoticed.
She reaches out in faith and touches Jesus’ robe.
C.
He noticed.
And He stopped, makes the important guy wait, and asks who touched Him in a large crowd of people.
His disciples are like, duh, everyone touched you Jesus...can we get on to the rich guy, people will see us in action and we’ll get more attention that way.
But He waits.
D. Why do you think she was afraid (vs 33)?
Because she knows that she just made this Rabbi unclean.
You can’t be touched by a bleeding woman and still be clean.
a) Jesus wants to emphasize to her that it wasn’t just His power that healed her.
It was His power through faith that healed her.
She said it herself, if I could just touch His robe, I could be healed.
(vs 34)
b) He is a personal God and wants her to see His face and experience the kindness of another person, because she probably hadn’t since she was a girl.
E. Jesus waits too long and the little girl dies.
(vs 35)
a) Why? It’s like when older people are cured of cancer but a 5 year old dies...why?
b) For Jarius.
Notice what Jesus says to him… (vs 36) it’s like He is saying don’t lose hope Jarius, hold on a little longer.
I wonder if He is testing Jarius, does he really believe that Jesus can save his daughter?
c) Jesus says to stop mourning they laugh at Him.
He takes the girl by hand and tells her to get up...and she does.
