This weekend is going to be a little bit different. This sermon is going to be of a different kind. Rather than preach on one specific text, I’m going to try to pull together all kinds of texts. Rather than trying to preach one specific narrative, I want to try to preach on the big narrative, the metanarrative. Rather than try to show what Jesus is doing in this specific text, I want to try to show you what Jesus is doing in all the texts. It’s going to be a different sort of sermon and I’m praying that it will be a blessing to you.
This weekend, we will look at the account in Matthew 15:29-39 together with all of the other accounts, we’re going to ask one big question and get one big answer: What is Jesus doing in all of these miracle accounts? See, we’re going to read about another massive feeding of people. This time Jesus feeds 4000 with seven loaves and a few small fish. Last time Jesus fed 5000 with 5 loaves and two fish. There are some differences, but there are some major similarities. So, we have to ask the question: What is Jesus doing in all of these miracle accounts? What is Jesus doing?
Read Matthew 14 and 15 to review and remember these accounts in preparation for worship this weekend. You won’t regret it!
