As Jesus passed near him, Bartimaeus belted out a desperate plea to get Jesus's attention--his only hope at healing and a better life. The crowd scolded Bartimaeus to be quiet, but he SHOUTED LOUDER. This time Jesus stopped and said nine words that changed the trajectory of his life--and will change yours:
"What do you want me to do for you?" Through his unique style of storytelling, humor, and fist-pumping motivation, award-winning author, pastor, and podcaster Chuck Tate unpacks this unforgettable encounter between Bartimaeus and Jesus, showing how it can also be your story. Revealing faith-building biblical truth and wisdom, he shows how to
- overcome obstacles to boldly approach God
- rise above resistance to receive from God
- dream big and believe in God for the impossible
- move from desperately calling for Jesus to passionately following him
God always does exceedingly more than we can ask or imagine. So what are you willing to cry out for? Go ahead and SHOUT--and receive all he has for you.
