Mark 10:46-52;13-16
This morning Pastor Lyle will continue the series exploring some of the short prayers in the Bible. Last week we saw how the short prayer, “I want to see” (v51), provides context for the stories that come before it. Today we’ll focus on the story where a rich young man comes to Jesus with a question about eternal life. Jesus’ response to him truly challenged whether he indeed wanted to see the truth about what he was trusting as his ultimate Saviour and the truth about Jesus’ description of the truly blessed life.
