Mark gives us one of the most challenging scenes in the Gospels. In one encounter, Jesus refers to a Syrophoenician woman as a “dog.” In the next, He heals a deaf man using fingers in his ears, spit, and touching his tongue. Both passages present beggars at the feet of Jesus, who come with nothing but leave with everything.

As we continue our series in the book of Mark we come across the feeding of the five thousand. In this miracle, we see Jesus as the fulfillment of Moses cry for a shepherd in Numbers 27, the fulfillment of Ezekiel's prophecy in Ezekiel 34, and the fulfillment of our greatest desires and longings today.
