You Are More Than THIS Moment

Mark 5:1–20

Prepare for the Study

Your moment can describe where you are. It cannot define who you are.

“Your current condition may describe where you are, but it does not have the authority to define who you are or what Jesus can do next.”

Before the Study

  • Read Mark 4:35–5:20 and notice how Jesus moves from calming the storm to confronting another kind of chaos.
  • Notice the movement from the tombs and chains to sitting, clothed, and in his right mind.
  • Consider what pain has tried to name in you and how Jesus restores identity, dignity, and purpose.
01

More Than the Moment

Jesus sees a person where everyone else sees a problem, a condition, or a label.

02

Restored Identity

The man is found sitting, clothed, and in his right mind. Jesus restores what torment tried to erase.

03

Purpose After the Pain

Jesus sends the restored man home to tell what the Lord has done. His mercy becomes ministry.
