What does real faith look like? In this message, Austin W. Duncan dives into the story of four friends who wouldn’t take no for an answer. When the crowd blocked their way to Jesus, they got creative—they climbed up, tore open the roof, and lowered their friend down. Their determination shows us something important about faith: it doesn’t just believe, it moves. Through Mark 2:1-12, we’ll see what this story teaches about Jesus’ authority, our deepest need, and what it means to bring others to Him.
