Taking the Sermon Home
The readings forAugust 2 are from Isaiah 55; Psalm 145 and Matthew 14 with the Feeding of the Five Thousand.
Isaiah 55 asks, why do you spend your money for that which is not bread, and your labor for that which does not satisfy? How well are your values reflected in your life choices?
When is it hard for you to show compassion?
How does Jesus challenge the disciples to participate in helping the hungry people in need of food?
