Jesus wastes no time. In Mark 1:14–45, we watch Him step decisively into public ministry—proclaiming the good news, calling the first disciples with a simple “Follow me,” teaching with authority in the synagogue, and healing both in public and in a private home. Meredith Weatherby and Lynn Adams explore Mark’s urgent pace and the difference between kairos (God’s appointed moment) and chronos (clock time), the “Messianic Secret,” and why Jesus withdraws to pray right after a whirlwind day. Finally, a leper approaches—and Jesus does the unthinkable: He reaches out and touches him. This conversation invites us to consider who we’re walking near, how we practice rhythms of action and solitude, and where Jesus may be restoring what feels too big—or too small—for anyone else to heal.
