Healing in the Gospel of Mark:
- Signs of Christ's Divinity

- Spiritual Healings (Forgiveness of Sins and Exorcisms)
- Compassion/Mercy of God
- Signs that Christ has Come to Conquer Suffering, Death, Sin and Satan
Application Questions:
- At the Last Supper, Christ performs a miracle for his disciples. Where do we see this miracle take place today?
- Recall how worried the apostles were when they were on the boat with Jesus and a storm arose. Jesus calms the storm and asks them, "Why are you afraid?" (Mk 4:40) When was a time when you were afraid or worried about something and Jesus took care of you?
