After having gathered in the lost - the tax/toll collectors and "sinners" - he suddenly gets called to a high status household, but on the way heals a marginalized woman suffering from menstrual bleeding. Chapters 8 and 9 have Jesus entering the worlds and lives of people who are very separate from each other: a leper, gentiles, women and men, social outcasts, low and high status people; in all of these situations, he brings healing, both social and physical. And finally he heals two blind men and casts out the demon from a mute man, punctuating this section of the story with images of liberation from Isaiah.

The miracles that Jesus performed are recorded in the Bible as evidence that He is the Christ, the Son of the Living God. There are somewhere in the neighborhood of 97 accounts recorded in the New Testament scriptures. These miracles were spread across the entire region Jesus was in, from Caesarea Philippi in the north, to Judean villages in the south, and from the coasts of Tyre and Sidon by the Mediterranean Sea, eastward across the Jordan River, in Decapolis. Take about 30 minutes to listen in on Arnie and Fred's readings of some of these miracles that Jesus performed. Have your Bible available and at the end decide for yourself if Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God.
