We continue the BREAD OF LIFE in John. Wisdom prepares a feast, sets her table, and invites all to come and eat her bread and drink her wine. The first chapter of John’s gospel owes much to the biblical tradition that imagined Wisdom as existing before anything was created and having a role in the work of creation. Christ, the wisdom of God (1 Cor. 1:24), today invites us to eat his flesh and drink his blood. John’s gospel includes no account of the institution of the Lord’s supper, but here we can't help hearing Jesus’ words as an invitation to the meal of bread and wine we share.
SCRIPTURE: Proverbs 9:1-6 Psalm 34:9-14 Ephesians 5:15-20 John 6:51-58
We had a great night at the Diamondbacks game! Unfortunately we waited too long to take the picture and not everyone is in it! The night ended with a walk-off home run for a Diamondbacks win followed by a concert by Casting Crowns
