"G.R.E.A.T. Faith"

In Matthew 15, a Canaanite woman comes to Jesus with a need that no one around her could address. She was not a Jew. She had no standing. And yet she fixed her eyes on Jesus, called Him Lord and Son of David, and refused to move no matter what came at her. In this sermon, Elder Omar Edwards walks through five elements of great faith using her story as the frame: God-focused, Repentant, Earnest, Adoring, and Tenacious. He draws a sharp contrast between this woman and the disciples who had witnessed miracle after miracle and still struggled to trust. The sermon calls both believer and unbeliever to consider what it actually means to come to Jesus, not for what He can give, but in repentance, humility, and desperate need.
