Message by Larry Thacker Jr. from September 13, “Bartimaeus Is Not Blind”
I want to share a vision with you, and I want to do it by talking about a blind man. Actually, he isn’t blind, and that’s the point. Our church is named after Bartimaeus, whose story is found in Mark 10:46-52. We call him blind Bartimaeus, but he hasn’t been blind since that day when he heard Jesus passing by and would not give up until Jesus answered him. Jesus healed Bartimaeus, and then Bartimaeus followed Jesus. We will always be a church that makes a special effort to include people with disabilities. That’s part of who we are. But it is my desire that we are also known as a church full of faithful Jesus followers who will not give up! That is the nature our namesake, and that is who we want to be.
