SCRIPTURE READINGS FOR SUNDAY
Old Testament: Isaiah 50:4–10

OUR THEME FOR WORSHIP SUNDAY
In the Gospel, Jesus encounters another person possessed by an unclean spirit. The young man’s father is distraught and desperate. The father uses his tongue to plead with Jesus: “I believe; help my unbelief!” Jesus does help the man’s unbelief by healing his son. Jesus helps our unbelief as well in all that He does. In His miracles and teaching, suffering and death, resurrection and ascension, Jesus calls us to faith. And He calls us to be His witnesses.
