We find Bartimaeus on the road from Jericho to Jerusalem blind and pleading with Jesus to heal him. Most won’t remember him outside of this short encounter with Jesus, but there is a lot we can learn from him. This lesson is from our series Keep the Fires Burning. Keep the Fires Burning is a Bible Study series of the minor characters of the Bible that can teach us major lessons. Each episode will introduce you to a new character and help you understand why they are mentioned.
