"Following: Who Said She Could Follow?" – Mark 5:25-34 Lenten Sermon Series Part II
Sermon by Dr. George C. Anderson from Sunday, February 25, 2024. "Who says she can follow Jesus? Not the crowd. Not even Jesus who doesn’t know she is behind him. She follows Jesus because she gets it. She gets what makes it possible for any of us to follow Jesus, no matter how worthy we think we already are.
"What she gets is grace. She knows that despite what anyone says . . . that she has a place in Jesus’ company. It is not because she is well or unwell, acceptable or unacceptable, guilty or innocent, clean or unclean. It is because God’s grace, which welcomes others, welcomes her. Jesus makes that clear to her when he says, 'Daughter, your faith has made you well.' The woman’s embrace of grace is the faith that has saved her—which, by the way is a better translation than 'made you well.'"
