In this episode of Sermons from the East End, Rev. Bri-anne delves into the transformative power of mercy. Reflecting on the story of Jesus and Bartimaeus, along with her experiences as a spiritual advisor and friend to death row inmate Ramiro Gonzales, we explore the question: who deserves mercy?

Join us as we consider the complexities of justice, compassion, and the radical call to mercy in a world that often seems more focused on retribution.

Scripture: Mark 10:46-52 Christ heals blind Bartimaeus

"When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to shout out and say, 'Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!'

Many sternly ordered him to be quiet, but he cried out even more loudly, 'Son of David, have mercy on me!'"
