# 418: Why Did Jesus Stop? - Mark Part 17

Описание

Scripture: Mark 5:21–35 Series: Mark part 17 In today's episode, we continue our journey through the Gospel of Mark and meet a woman who had been sick for twelve years. She had tried everything. Spent everything. And nothing had worked. But she had heard about Jesus—and she believed that if she could just get close enough to touch His cloak, she would be healed. And she was. Instantly. But then Jesus stopped and asked, "Who touched me?" The disciples thought it was a silly question—everyone was touching Him! So why did Jesus stop and ask? Today we find out. We also meet Jairus—an important man who falls at Jesus' feet and begs Him to come heal his dying daughter. Jesus agrees and heads that way. But then the news arrives: "Your daughter is dead." We will have to wait until next time to find out what happens next… In This Episode We Talk About: Why Jesus stopped What a superstition is and why Jesus didn't want the woman to have one What faith really means for young kids today How to trust Jesus with the things that feel scary or hard 📣 How Does My Child Get a Listener Shout-Out?
