Read Mark 5:24 – 34.

1. Choose three words to describe the suffering this woman had experienced for twelve years.

2. She probably touched others in the crowd accidentally while trying to get to Jesus. As an unclean woman, what was she risking by doing this? What did it take to accept such a risk?

3. Why do you think she was afraid to admit she was the one who had touched Jesus?

4. Is there anything about this woman — her suffering, her actions, her healing — that reminds you of yourself? If so, what is it?

5. If you have pursued Jesus for healing and haven’t yet received it, what do you do with this story?
