Description
Ever Feel Like What You Have Isn't Enough? This Sermon Will Change Your Perspective When a hungry crowd of over 5,000 people faced impossible odds, one small boy with five barley loaves and two fish changed everything. In this powerful exposition of John 6, discover how God takes our smallest offerings and creates miraculous abundance—but not without a cost we often ignore. Pastor Fortunato unpacks the profound truth behind Jesus feeding the multitude, revealing why we struggle when our faith seems too weak, our gifts too limited, and our resources too small. This isn't just another retelling of a familiar miracle—it's a wake-up call about the reality of brokenness and blessing in the Christian life. Through careful examination of Scripture, connecting John 6 with Numbers 11 & Psalms 132, you'll discover: ✝️ Why Philip's calculations failed (and why ours do too) ✝️ The significance of barley loaves—poor man's bread ✝️ How Andrew brought doubt AND faith to Jesus simultaneously ✝️ What the 12 baskets of fragments really represent ✝️ The uncomfortable truth about brokenness before blessing ✝️ Why American Christianity often misses the complete gospel message This sermon doesn't shy away from reality. Drawing from the lives of David Livingstone, Jim Elliot, the Ecuadorian Five, and other missionaries who faced tremendous brokenness alongside incredible blessing, Pastor Fortunato challenges the "rainbows and cupcakes" version of Christianity that promises blessings without sacrifice. You can't have fragments to feed a multitude without something being broken first. Jesus broke bread to bless thousands. His body was broken so we could be blessed.
