WHAT MAKES JESUS MARVEL? | Shannon O'Dell

In this powerful and eye-opening message, we dive deep into the question Jesus asked in Luke 18:41:

“What do you want Me to do for you?”

It’s a question that calls us to reflect on our faith—what we believe about God, and how that belief moves us.

⚡ Romans 1:17 reminds us that “The just shall live by faith,” and this message unpacks what that life of faith truly looks like.

🔑 Three Essentials of Faith:

Believe God IS – Hebrews 11:1

Believe God CAN – Romans 8:8

Believe God is WILLING – Hebrews 11:6

But there’s more…

Jesus marveled only twice in the Bible—once at great faith, and once at a lack of faith.

Which one describes you?
