Today is the first of five Sundays with gospel readings from John 6, the first four of which focus on Jesus as bread of life. Today Jesus feeds thousands of people with five loaves and two fish. What we have, what we bring to Jesus’ table, seems like it is not nearly enough to meet all the needs we see around us. But it is not the adequacy of our supplies or our skills that finally makes the difference: it is the power of Jesus working in the littlest and least to transform this world into the world God desires, a world where all the hungry are satisfied.
Join us for this discussion as we explore together with the authors that people from opposing political perspectives truly can have calm, grace-filled conversations with one another. We had a great discussion at Connection Night on Wednesday, July 10! There is still time to join in! For the next Connection Night we will be discussing Chapter 2-4. If you would be interested in participating via Zoom, please contact Pastor Kaila at: karmbruster@iamcrossroads.org
