Isaiah 56:1-8
Psalm 67
Romans 11:13-24
Matthew 15:21-28
St. Timothy Anglican Church Worship - Augist 20, 2023Jesus and the Outsider Deacon David Morris stepped in as a last minute guest preacher, and shared a wonderful meditation on the gospel lesson. What do we do with outsiders? When a woman approached Jesus for help, the disciples wanted Jesus to offer help and send the woman away. They wanted to find the easiest path to escape the situation. Jesus, however, used the opportunity to foreshadow the beutiful expanse of His Kingdom, in which the walls that divide us come down through His death and resurrection.
