In this episode, I walk through Mark 5:1–20 and invite us to slow down and really feel the story of the demon-possessed man Jesus meets in Gentile territory. This isn’t just a dramatic miracle account—it’s a powerful picture of what Jesus does wherever evil has dehumanized, isolated, or destroyed. As we study the story together, I unpack the backstory behind the tombs, the pigs, the word “Legion,” and why this moment matters so much. At the heart of it, we see that Jesus values one human life so deeply that no financial cost compares to the worth of restoring a person made in God’s image. And we’re reminded that one of the greatest gifts Jesus gives us after He restores us is a story to tell.
