"They went across the lake to the region of the Gerasenes. When Jesus
got out of the boat, a man with an impure spirit came from the tombs to
meet him" (Mark 5:1-2).
In Jesus' day, a great divide existed between the Jews and the Gentiles.
The Jews considered themselves to be on one side--on God's side--and
the Gentiles to be on the other. But time and again in Scripture, we
find Yeshua Jesus traveling to the "other side" to meet with broken,
lost, and desperate souls who needed God's grace. He crossed to other
side when Peter, the disciple who promised to never forsake Him, did
just that on the night that He was arrested. He literally crossed to the
other side of the Sea of Galilee to find a man in the region of the
Gerasenes, casting out a legion of demons from him and into a horde of
pigs. Jesus went out of His way to meet with a woman from Samaria and
told a parable of a Prodigal Son to demonstrate that no one is ever too
far from God. Jesus then encouraged His faithful followers to take up
the call to journey to the other side--as evidenced by Peter's
willingness to meet with a Gentile named Cornelius and even stay in his
home.
In this six-session video Bible study, bestselling author Kathie Lee
Gifford explores the stories of these important figures in Scripture who
were willing to take the gospel to "the other side" so that all might
learn of God's plan of salvation. Participants will discover that they
are never too far gone or too far out of reach for God to find them,
minister to them, and heal them. They will also be encouraged to follow
the example of Yeshua Jesus and meet with those who are hurting . . .
right where they are.
