John 6:35, 41-51
Pentecost 12B, August 11th, 2024
What is the sermon about? . . .
In the lectionary, we are still talking about bread and Christ being “The bread of life”. In this week’s message, we find Jesus’ response to the doubters. “Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How can he now say. ‘I have come down from heaven?”
We tend to think that those who lived, walked and saw Jesus firsthand were all immediately on board with his claim of being the Messiah. Even in his days on earth he had to advocate for the good news about himself and his ministry. He responded to those who did not yet believe with eloquence and hope! A model for us to follow today. See you Sunday. Bring your doubts!
