bringing God's loving word to God's world
Mothering Sunday Sermon 2018

Mothering Sunday 2018

Mark 7 24 – 30 “Jesus Honours a Syrophoenician Woman”. Although based on the reading in Mark, Duncan has also drawn heavily on Matthew 15. When writing his gospel, Matthew was aiming it at a Jewish audience. He therefore included references that would chime a chord with Jewish Christians. The Gospel of Mark on the other hand, was written in Greek and aimed the the Gentiles. The sermon deals with the all encompassing nature of Christianity and it message of hope to all.
