S4E121: Spiritually Blind, Mark 10:46-52.

Season 4

Episode 121
Mark's challenge to the church hits its high point in this account of a blind man named Bartimaeus. His warning: the disciples who were in the closest proximity to Jesus were spiritually blind and didn't know it. What does take to be the fourth soil from the parable of the sower? It wasn't the disciples who showed the way. It was one of the least likely people. The Eikon team welcomes special guest, Deniedra Fontenette, and discusses the implications of Mark's challenge for the contemporary church.
