A Broken Man Before The Boundless Gospel

Contributed by Austin W. Duncan on Sep 26, 2025

Locked doors and crowded rooms can stop most people, but real faith finds a way. In Mark 2:1–12 four friends tear through a roof to place a paralytic before Jesus—He forgives first, then heals—showing His authority and calling us to carry others to Him.
