Sermon by Kenny Foster, Associate Pastor, I Kings 19:4-8 & John 6:41-51. As a child I loved it when our family would go on vacation. My parents would plan and prepare for long drives from Nebraska to Niagara Falls, NY, or, Macon, Mississippi. And since there were ten kids, we couldn’t stop at restaurants to eat. My mother would make sandwiches and have fruit for us to eat because the journey was long. Life is a journey, and sometimes people don’t plan for the right foods that will sustain them during the journey. Other times the food they are relying on is not going to sustain them in life. The worst thing to have happen is to eat things that don’t help you on your journey. Eat the wrong thing and your journey can be cut short!
This week’s sermon is about having bread for a great journey. If life is a journey, what are you eating for sustenance? In our Scripture reading there is a bread that corrodes, a bread that doesn’t hold, and bread for growing old. With the varieties of bread that are being offered, you will be encouraged to watch what you eat.
