Jesus Heals a Boy with a Demon // Matthew 17:14-20 // Tobi Ford-Western // Hope is Here 2

Jesus chooses this moment of chaos to bring some teaching to the father and the disciples, rebuking them for their lack of faith. At the time the boy’s healing would have felt much more pressing but for Jesus, healing people under dark oppression is easy. He was much more concerned by the doubt that persisted in the hearts of the disciples.
