Rev. Todd Niebling, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church in Oxnard, CA joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study Matthew 8:1-17.

It was Jesus’ will to heal the lowly leper, the centurion, Peter’s mother-in-law, and the demon possessed man. This healing we are able to see Jesus’ authority and power, now and into eternity. Unlike normal kings, He uses that power to have compassion on the most unlikely of people. If He is willing to have compassion on the leper, He will have compassion on us. “Lord God, Your healing is for unclean people. Heal us and have compassion on our sinful lives so that we may rest in Your forgiving & cleansing blood. In Your name, Amen”
