Sunday 1st March 2026 // Morning // Luke 9:10-17 // The Feeding of the Five Thousand

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Luke 9:10-17 at morning worship on Sunday 1st March 2026 in First Ards. Jesus withdraws with the apostles after their mission, but when the crowds arrive he welcomes them, teaches about God’s kingdom and meets their needs. As the day ends and the disciples see only limitation, Jesus challenges them to trust him with what little they have, taking five loaves and two fish and feeding the crowd until everyone is satisfied. The passage shows a King who is never inconvenienced by need and who supplies abundantly through his servants, reminding us that ministry flows from Christ’s sufficiency rather than our resources.
