Ep. 87 - Matthew - Chapters 8-9

We are so excited to dive back into scripture with all of you! In episode 87 of the Adorned Podcast we discuss chapters 8 and 9 of Matthew. What a gift it is to have the Bible to give us glimpse into the miracles that Jesus performed while on earth. From calming the seas to healing leprosy, it’s easy to take these stories that many of us are familiar with for granted, but there is so much we can learn from these accounts of Jesus’ life!

Quotes:

“I have no control over how people are going to respond, but I am still called to speak truth.”

“Jesus loves and cares for the marginalized.”

“We get to see the magnitude of Jesus’ power and the intimacy of His power.”

“Sanctification makes us long for heaven.”

“Jesus is making the point that the call to follow Him rises above everything.”

“Nothing is going to give us our daily dose of awe like God’s Word will.”

“How many times are we more concerned with our things than people?”

“If we really believe that God is sovereign over all, we can look at what we would call distractions as just part of God’s plan.”

“We need to be so dependent on God that we know we cannot do it without him.”
