What do you want me to do?

In this message, we walk through the story of Bartimaeus in Mark 10—an overlooked moment where Jesus asks one of the most personal questions in all of Scripture: “What do you want Me to do for you?” At first it sounds simple, but it’s a question that reveals what’s happening beneath the surface of our lives.

As we follow Bartimaeus, a blind beggar pushed to the margins, we see a man who refuses to stay silent and a Savior who stops everything to call him close. Jesus restores his sight, gives him dignity, and welcomes him into the journey ahead. Through this encounter, we’re invited to consider our own desires, our own wounds, and the parts of our story where we long for God to step in.

This message unpacks how Jesus is not just interested in forgiving sin—He’s committed to healing the broken places in our hearts, minds, relationships, and lives. He brings shalom, a deep wholeness that goes far beyond coping or surviving.

Ultimately, this teaching challenges us to be honest with God, to ask for healing, and to trust the One who still asks us today: What do you want Me to do for you?
