A man once came up to Jesus, who was totally obsessed by the powers that had taken over his country. Phantom invaders had taken over his humanity. They had given him a superhuman strength but had left him a human wreck: naked, isolated, self-destructive. Mark tells us that the encounter with Jesus had a major impact: the man was healed and sent out. Coming Sunday we will consider the story of Mark 5. And think about what can happen when Jesus enters our world today.
