Freedom: Faith that Risks (with Guest Speaker Tom Allen)

In Mark 5:27-28, which says, "She had heard about Jesus, and came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak, for she said, ‘If I but touch his clothes, I will be made well,’" we see a faith that risks as we follow the story about a woman who had great faith and was willing to risk shame and condemnation in order to complete her faith. Let us gather this Sunday and learn from guest speaker Tom Allen about what a faith that risks looks like.

This Week's Scripture:
// Mark 5:25-34 (NRSVA) //
Now there was a woman who had been suffering from haemorrhages for twelve years. She had endured much under many physicians, and had spent all that she had; and she was no better, but rather grew worse. She had heard about Jesus, and came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak, for she said, "If I but touch his clothes, I will be made well." Immediately her haemorrhage stopped; and she felt in her body that she was healed of her disease. Immediately aware that power had gone forth from him, Jesus turned about in the crowd and said, "Who touched my clothes?" And his disciples said to him, "You see the crowd pressing in on you; how can you say, 'Who touched me?'" He looked all round to see who had done it. But the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came in fear and trembling, fell down before him, and told him the whole truth. He said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace, and be healed of your disease."
