03 | Glory for the Excluded

 

John 2

John continues to paint a picture of the extraordinary and unpredictable ministry of the Messiah. Jesus lived most of his life in a place of poor reputation, quiet until he steps into focus, calls some unlikely disciples, and begins to minister in unconventional ways in offbeat places. In our text this week, Jesus gives a small-town wedding a miraculous abundance of really good wine and in a fit or holy zeal cleanses the temple of an unjust marketplace. He sets the tone for his ministry & kingdom: finding the lost and disrupting the religious, offering belief in his name to everyone without partiality, putting his glory on display for the excluded.
