This sermon considers the depth of the problem of sin in light of offering evidences to unbelievers. 

The Gospel lesson is Mark 10:46-52, the healing of Bartimaeus and his subsequent following of Jesus. We have our own blindness and our own difficulties in following Jesus. 

This sermon is based on Mark 10:35-45 where the disciples ask to sit at Jesus' right and left. In what way are we being led by ambitions "Gentiles" and what does Christianity teach us about leadership? 

In the end, we either live by God's rule or we believe we are God. You see this quite clearly in the story of the rich young ruler.
