Session 2: THE QUESTIONS JESUS ASKED: What Do You Want Me to Do for You?

In Session 2 of The Questions Jesus Asked, we look at Mark 10:46–52 and the moment Jesus stops for a blind beggar named Bartimaeus and asks, “What do you want me to do for you?”On the surface the question seems unnecessary. The man’s need is obvious. Yet Jesus still invites him to name it. That invitation exposes something many of us as men struggle with: the pride that keeps us from admitting weakness, the fear that silences honest prayer, and the habit of trying to carry burdens we were never meant to carry alone.Bartimaeus shows a different way. He recognizes his need, refuses to be silenced by the crowd, answers Jesus directly, receives his sight, and then follows Him on the road. The story doesn’t end with a healed man walking away; it ends with a disciple following the One who showed him mercy.In this teaching we walk through:Why recognizing need is the beginning of real dependence (not failure)How genuine faith keeps crying out even when others (or our own pride, shame, or discouragement) tell us to be quietWhat it means to bring our deepest struggles before Jesus honestly instead of offering only surface-level prayersWhy following Jesus matters more than simply receiving the answer we wantedIf Jesus asked you the same question tonight—“What do you want me to do for you?”—would you be honest enough to tell Him what you’re really carrying?Practical challenge this week:Name the need you’ve been avoiding.Ask God to examine your heart, not just your circumstances.Take one faithful step (a conversation, accountability, time in Scripture, or simply showing up again).Next week we finish the series with the question Jesus asked Peter after the resurrection: “Do you love me?”#MountainMen #QuestionsJesusAsked #Mark10 #Bartimaeus #MenOfFaith #BiblicalManhood #Prayer #Discipleship
