Sermon Notes: “Love Closes the Distance “
Pastor Alan Hannah | November 2, 2025
40A man with leprosy came and knelt in front of Jesus, begging to be healed. “If you are willing, you can heal me and make me clean,” he said. 41Moved with compassion, Jesus reached out and touched him. “I am willing,” he said. “Be healed!” 42Instantly, the leprosy disappeared, and the man was healed. [Mark 1:40-45]
41Moved with compassion, Jesus reached out and touched him. “I am willing,” he said. “Be healed!” [Mark 1:41]
45But the man went and spread the word, proclaiming to everyone what had happened. As a result, large crowds soon surrounded Jesus, and he couldn’t publicly enter a town anywhere. [Mark 1:45]
