Today, as we reflect on his interaction with Pilate and the centurion at the cross, may we not lose our own sense of awe at who Jesus is and what he came to do—for everyone.

In stories like calming the storm in Matthew 8 and walking on water in Matthew 14, we see His unmatched authority over nature itself, reminding us that even the chaos listens to Him. Today, we’re exploring how Jesus’s sovereignty invites us not just to trust Him in the storm, but to worship Him as the one who reigns above it all.

A couple of weeks ago, we explored moments where Jesus was amazed—but today, we’re flipping the script to look at how Jesus amazed others.

Let’s dive into the end of the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 7 and rediscover how Jesus continues to astonish us today.

Some Bible stories stop you in your tracks—and this one in Matthew 15 is one of them. Jesus’s response to a desperate, faithful Gentile woman feels shockingly out of character at first glance, but if we stay with the discomfort, we find a powerful story of persistence, faith, and a boundary-breaking grace.

Before Jesus points out the humble widow’s offering in Mark 12, He tells a parable about tenants rejecting their master’s messengers—and ultimately his son—just like the religious leaders rejected Him. In a chapter full of pride, power plays, and spiritual posturing, it’s the quiet, costly gift of a poor widow that captures Jesus’s attention and reveals what true devotion really looks like.

Yesterday we saw Jesus amazed by the faith of a Roman centurion—but today, we see Him amazed for the opposite reason: the unbelief of His own hometown. In Mark 6, those who knew Jesus best couldn’t see past His ordinary background, and their lack of faith closed them off from the miracles waiting to happen.

This week, we’re asking a big question: What amazes Jesus?—and what that reveals about the kind of faith that moves Him. Today, we’re looking at the Roman centurion in occupied Capernaum—he had power, status, and wealth—yet the one in Luke chapter 7 came to Jesus with unexpected humility and bold faith.
