• God's use of people who have nothing to offer
• Jesus's practical provision of our needs
• The authority and gentleness of Jesus
• Chilis Chicken Crispers

When the disciples return from Jesus's mission, they withdraw to find some rest. Instead, Jesus gives the disciples a new, seemingly impossible task. In the feeding of the 5,000, we see that God's grace is sufficient for us and that his power is made perfect in our weakness.
