Ep. 16 - When Jesus Seems Late

Aug 25, 2026    Jamin Grubbs, John Michael Burrow, Nathan Dodd

What do you do when Jesus seems delayed and the bad news keeps coming? In this episode of Ordinary Faith, we revisit Mark 5:21-43 and the intertwined stories of Jairus and the woman who had suffered for twelve years.

Together, we explore how desperation can drive us toward Jesus, the bold faith it took for the woman to reach through the crowd, and the kindness of Christ toward people who are hurting, ashamed, or convinced they are too far gone. We also discuss trusting Jesus before the outcome changes, listening to His voice over the crowd, and seeking God Himself—not only the benefits He can provide.

If you are waiting, hurting, or facing something you cannot fix, remember: Jesus is accessible, He is never frantic, and He has the final say. Stop fearing. Keep believing.
