08.16.26: Real Faith, Real Life: A Seat at the Table
From Peachtree Christian Church Sermons · 00:28:15
Show by Peachtree Christian Church
Jesus leads his disciples across the border into Tyre and Sidon. There he stays silent while a Canaanite woman begs him to help her daughter, and then he compares her people to dogs. In one of the thorniest passages in the Gospels (Matthew 15:21-28), Rev. Dr. Jarrod Longbons won’t let Jesus off the hook. He draws on a Feast of Weeks dinner with a Jewish family, a family movie night with Remember the Titans, and a lesson staged in a law classroom, and he reads Jesus here as a holy trickster who teaches by showing rather than telling. A clever, persistent outsider shows that a place in God’s story was never a birthright. There is more than enough. We aren’t offered crumbs under the table but a seat at the banquet.#RealFaithRealLife #Matthew15 #CanaaniteWoman #GreatIsYourFaith #RoomAtTheTable #EnoughForAll #FaithOverBirthright #MinistryIsMessy #PCCAtlanta #PeachtreeChristianChurch #SermonSeries #RevDrJarrodLongbons
