The Woman With Grasping Faith

Contributed by John Gaston on Jun 22, 2021

While trying to heal Jairus' daughter, Jesus encountered a woman who believed that the faintest contact with Jesus would result in her healing. Jesus' blue fringe brought her the fringe benefits of salvation!

Freedom From Terror

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 6, 2021

We read of the demon-possessed man in Mark 5:1-20 and the "Legion" of evil spirits that had tormented him until he was freed and redeemed by the Lord Jesus Christ. One can only imagine the impact of his powerful testimony.

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 9, 2021

Mark 5:21-43 tells of the healing of two women who received new lives when it seemed all was lost. Each one was a living testimony of the miracle-working power of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Mark draws our attention in his Gospel to the miracles of the Lord Jesus.

Running To Jesus

Contributed by Thomas Andrufski on Mar 17, 2021

Running to Jesus Proverbs 18:10 (KJV) The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.

Madness Meets Its Master Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 27, 2021

The Power Of Touch Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 27, 2021
