Have you ever felt unworthy or unsure if you truly belong? In the sermon *Outsider Focused* from the Mark series, Jeff Piepho explores how Jesus broke social and religious barriers by showing compassion to Gentiles—outsiders who were often rejected by Jewish society. Looking at Mark 8:1-10, we see that Jesus fed 4,000 Gentiles not just because they were hungry, but because He *felt* for them deeply. This act mirrors the prophecy of Isaiah 49:6 that God's salvation would reach all nations. Through powerful illustrations and practical applications, Jeff challenges us to examine our own biases and take real steps to reach people we might normally overlook. No matter how sinful or different someone is, Jesus cares—and He calls us to care too. #JesusLovesOutsiders #Mark8 #JeffPiepho #BibleTeaching #ChristianSermon #GospelMessage #Outreach #FaithInAction #JesusIsForEveryone #CompassionLikeChrist
