In this session, we’ll meet a religious leader who desperately wanted to talk with Jesus. This father’s daughter was dying and in need of healing. As he approached Jesus, he fell to his knees and pleaded with Him. Jesus responded by going to his home.

This encounter is one of desperation. Perhaps you’ve been in a situation where you needed Jesus to do a miracle. Perhaps you’ve questioned your own faith as you prayed and asked Jesus to intervene. If so, you can relate to the story. The challenge for each of us is to be able to hold tightly to our faith when we are surrounded by impossible circumstances.
