Relentless Faith

Pastor Nick Connolly
delivered at First United Methodist Church
for joint services with
Grace United Methodist Church
and other churches from Kearny.

August 17, 2007
Scripture: Matthew 15:21-28

A woman from the proverbial places of idolatry, Tyre and Sidon, comes to Jesus filled with faith and longing that her daughter be healed. We explore the brusque response of Jesus, finding a contrast with her strong faith and the weakness of Peter's faith in the Gospel last Sunday of his few steps upon the waters. Feel the impact and the implication for us, of the story of the religious sister begging for poor children.
