A Typical Day in Jesus' Town

Aug 31, 2025    Eric Laverentz

In Matthew 9, we follow Jesus through an extraordinary day in Capernaum—a day filled with healings, confrontations, and powerful displays of God’s Kingdom. From forgiving a paralyzed man and calling Matthew the tax collector, to raising Jairus’ daughter and restoring sight to the blind, Jesus reveals that He came not for the self-righteous but for the broken, hurting, and outcast. This message reminds us that Jesus sees us, meets us in our need, and calls us into a life of joy, mercy, and faith.
