In week two of this series, Pastor Meredith confronts the gap between who Jesus is and how His followers are often perceived. Through the story of Bartimaeus, she explores how Christians can unintentionally become barriers instead of bridges—and how we’re called to reflect the heart of Jesus by making room for others to encounter Him. This message challenges us to move out of the way, lead with compassion, and help people get to Jesus, not block them from Him.
