Wonder Working Jesus | Week 3

This episode of 'New Point Church' continues the 'Wonderworking Jesus' series, focusing on the two-stage healing of a blind man in Mark 8:22–26. The pastor uses this miracle not as a flaw in Jesus' power, but as a profound revelation of God's compassion and patience with weak faith. He contrasts the blind man’s passive, unasked-for healing with Peter’s active, growing faith, emphasizing that Jesus meets people where they are—especially those who have lost hope. Drawing parallels with the widow of Zarephath in 2 Kings 4 and personal stories of vocational redirection, the sermon illustrates how God works slowly and lovingly through life’s challenges. A powerful backpacking story from the pastor and his wife underscores the theme: even in exhaustion, injury, and uncertainty, hope—rooted in past divine faithfulness—carries believers forward. The message culminates in a call to trust God’s presence, embrace hope, and allow Him to lead us through life’s 'boulders' with grace and purpose.
