15 Binocular Bart and the Logic of Grace - Mark 10:46-52

How do you increase your spiritual insight and find blind spots? Jesus answers that question in the account of blind Bartimaeus. In this exposition of Gospel of Mark 10:47–52, we follow the desperate cry of Bartimaeus and discover what it really takes to receive sight from Jesus Christ. And why the needier you are, the bolder you can be in prayer. Spiritual insight doesn't come to the casual or comfortable—it comes to those who seek it with urgency, humility, and bold faith. Bartimaeus refused to be silenced, cried out all the louder, and seized his moment when Jesus passed by. His story exposes our lack of urgency and invites us into a deeper, more desperate pursuit of God. If you enjoy the episode, please consider subscribing to the podcast and leaving a 5-stars rating.

Since childhood, I've been drawn to the beauty and power of expository preaching—opening Scripture verse by verse and applying it to real life. After graduating from Moody Bible Institute, I spent the next 27 years serving as a youth pastor, senior pastor, church planter, and host of the Food For Your Soul radio broadcast. Along the way, I also earned a Master of Sacred Literature and a Doctor of Religious Studies. For more content from D. Richard Ferguson, visit TreasuringGod.com.
