Introduction

Good morning, church family. As we gather today, we are going to explore a passage from the Gospel of Matthew. In this passage, we'll see the boundless mercy of Jesus, the unshaken faith of a Canaanite woman, and most importantly, a glimpse into God's plan of salvation for all people, not just the Jews, but also the Gentiles.

Before we delve into this, I am reminded of a message from Max Lucado: "Though the Bible was written over sixteen centuries by at least forty authors, it has one central theme--salvation through faith in Christ." Lucado reminds us that although the Bible was not written recently, we know that salvation through faith is what’s most important. We’re going to be talking about how that applies to all people of every walk of life.

Let's take a closer look at our scripture passage:
