The Gap: Part 4
In Part 4 of our sermon series "The Gap," Pastor Paul dives deep into the challenges we face in our faith journey, exploring the gap between what we know and believe about God and the overwhelming circumstances that can shake our trust.
In this message, we explore the story from Mark 9, where a desperate father's faith is tested as he seeks healing for his son. The father's raw honesty and vulnerability echo the struggles many of us face when our faith is confronted by life's difficulties. Pastor Paul unpacks the lessons we can learn from this encounter and shares practical steps to navigate our own faith gaps.
📖 Key Scripture:
Mark 9:24 (NIV) - "Immediately the boy’s father exclaimed, 'I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!'"
