Insistent-Persistent Faith
Aug 16, 2020
Detail
How do you define your faith? Do the words insistent and persistent describe your faith? In today’s Gospel text we meet a woman who aptly defined her faith just that way, not just with words, but with her actions as well. But in addition to Matthew giving a pointed description of faith, we also see Jesus providing the disciples with one of the basic fundamentals of our Christian faith. Using the woman – a Canaanite, a non-Jew – Jesus establishes without question that His message of saving grace is for everyone from anywhere and everywhere. Join us as we sit in on this wonderful scene of faith and Jesus’ pointed teaching that He is here for the world – no exceptions.
