Mark 9:14-29

Pastor Leighton continues to teach us from the Gospel of Mark this morning:

“(I)f there’s one thing I want you to understand from this message today - one thing that’s more important than anything else I’ll speak this morning - I want you to catch who the father came to see with his son:

‘Teacher, I brought my son to you, for he has an evil spirit.’ (v.17)

No matter what your expertise is in life, no matter how gifted a pastor or counselor or friend you are, when someone comes to you for advice or help, they are not coming to you. They are coming to Jesus. They are asking him for help. You are only a messenger. You are only a conduit. If you don’t give them Jesus, you are at best being a hindrance.
