Jesus Doesn't Want Crowds, He Wants Disciples

What do we learn from the leper healed by Jesus in Mark 1:40-45? Is it only that Jesus makes the unclean clean? Is there more to learn from this example? Is the leper really the only focus of this text? What else might we learn from this story? Listen today as we exegete this text fully, and gain additional insight that is most often missed when we make us the focus of all scripture, instead of making God and Christ the focus of all scripture.
