Do You Want To Be Made Well? John 5:1-9

In this service we examined the story of a paralyzed man who lies for years by a pool thought to have healing properties. The story goes that occasionally an angel comes down to stir the waters and the first to get in the water while it's stirring find healing. But no one helps the man get in so he misses his chance again and again. Jesus asks him this strange questions, "Do you want to be made well?" Explore that with us.
