Throughout October, Jennifer and I have been preaching through the gospel lection that takes us through the tenth chapter of Mark. My sermon on Mark 10:46-52, entitled "Calling Out in the Dark," concluded this series. I tried something new (for me) with my sermon yesterday, opting to write the entire sermon in the voice of Bartimaeus himself. While I can't say whether or not it was particularly effective, I can definitely say that I had a lot of fun in its creation. Alas, I didn't foresee any easy way to do the recap in that same style, so I'm simply recapping the major points of the sermon as I normally would. The scripture text follows the video below.
Mark 10:46-52 (NRSV)
46 They came to Jericho. As he and his disciples and a large crowd were leaving Jericho, Bartimaeus son of Timaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting by the roadside. 47 When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to shout out and say, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” 48 Many sternly ordered him to be quiet, but he cried out even more loudly, “Son of David, have mercy on me!” 49 Jesus stood still and said, “Call him here.” And they called the blind man, saying to him, “Take heart; get up, he is calling you.” 50 So throwing off his cloak, he sprang up and came to Jesus. 51 Then Jesus said to him, “What do you want me to do for you?” The blind man said to him, “My teacher, let me see again.” 52 Jesus said to him, “Go; your faith has made you well.” Immediately he regained his sight and followed him on the way.
