In John 5:30–47, Jesus explains that his authority is confirmed by witnesses—John the Baptist, his miracles, the Father, and the Scriptures—yet the religious leaders miss him because they seek human approval instead of God’s truth. The message challenges us to let Scripture lead us to Christ and live for God’s glory rather than our own, allowing his Word to transform our lives.
In John 6:1–15, while Philip focused on the impossibility of feeding the crowd, Andrew simply brought a boy’s small meal to Jesus, showing the power of bringing what we have to him. The message teaches that God can multiply even our smallest offerings when surrendered with gratitude, turning them into blessings that impact others and advance his kingdom.
In John 6:16–21, Jesus pursues his disciples by walking on the water in the midst of their storm, showing that he comes to us in our fear and chaos with mercy and presence. The message reminds us that just as Jesus pursues us, we are called to step into others’ storms, rowing alongside them in love and pointing them to the Savior.
