This message is based on the story of Jesus raising Jarias' daughter from death. We need to understand all such stories recorded in the gospel's are in the context of the bigger gospel story. This story on its own brings little comfort or hope to the bereaved, especially those bereaved by tragedy. In fact it probably raises more questions. Theology goes wrong when we try to force this to be every story. However within the bigger gospel story this story points to the great hope of the Christian faith – RESURRECTION! - a story which can be everyone's story. The true gospel still preaches when everything goes wrong! Reading: Mark 5:21-43 ![]()
