Jesus and the Canaanite Woman

Welcome to our Sunday sermon podcast!  In this episode, Pastor Matt looks at Jesus's interaction with the Canaanite woman in Matthew 15.  In this passage, we see lines that have been drawn and Jesus crossing them.  Have we seen any lines drawn in our lives?  Have we drawn our own lines?  Have we gotten too comfortable on the "right side/our side" of the line that we refuse to acknowledge the other side? God's mission and the work of the Holy Spirit extends beyond and across any and every line humanity could ever draw.  The kingdom of God has no line of boundary for receiving God's grace, healing, and wholeness.  Our challenge is how do we let Jesus help us cross the lines we've drawn in the "us vs. them" to hear and care for the people on the other side.
