The Bread of Life, Week One: Miraculous Grace in Our Weakness

John 6:1-21
As we begin this five week series exploring Jesus’ teaching on the Bread of Life, we will find that we are exploring the work of God’s grace in our lives. One of the keys to living the Christian life is learning to see God’s ever present grace working in and around us. This week, as we look at Jesus’ feeding of the five thousand, we find that God’s grace works miracles in our weakness. Rather than seeing weakness as a bad thing, then, we must learn to see the gift and opportunity it presents us, for, as St. Paul noted, it is where we are weak that we find God is strong.
