A Canaanite Call-Out
•
SMC preachers
The Canaanite woman calls out Jesus for his exclusion and abusive language. He responds by changing his mind, offering her the healing that she seeks for her daughter. Throughout history, it has been the brave souls who make themselves vulnerable by calling out people in power who have changed minds and opened hearts to be more just and loving. How will we respond when we are called out? Who are the voices that need to be heard?
Sermon begins at marker 4:38
Matthew 15:21–28
