Overcoming Despair | Mark 9:14-29 | Austin Glenn | Mark: Living for the King in Light of the Cross

About this episode

This episode discusses how Jesus meets us in our struggles and the importance of prayer in overcoming despair.

What if your hardest season is exactly where Jesus wants to meet you? This week's teaching from Mark 9 explores how Jesus meets us in life's valleys with power, hope, and grace. Through a desperate father's honest prayer—"I believe; help my unbelief"—we're reminded that faith isn't about having it all together, but depending fully on Him. If you're facing struggles in your family, finances, health, or faith, this week's teaching will show how prayer becomes the bridge from weakness to breakthrough. Mark 9:14-29
