Of all the questions the miracle at Cana makes us ask, one of the most pressing is: “why is Jesus so rude to his mother?” While their tense interchange can feel like a distraction from the narrative, it’s not. Rather, their conflict is central to John’s understanding of the painful but necessary relational transformation initiated by Jesus stepping more fully into his calling and being revealed more fully as the Son of God. Deacon Lisa Elmers teaches from John 2:1-5.
