When he first called Matthew, Jesus had recently healed a man with leprosy and commanded a paralyzed man to walk. At Matthew's celebratory feast, Jesus reminded the Pharisees that it is not the healthy who need a physician but the sick. We are all dead in our sins and need a saving that only Jesus provides.
Theologically, meals are significant. The Bible begins and ends with a meal, starting with the tragic eating of fruit and ending with the redeeming marriage supper of the lamb. This summer, we are exploring people's various encounters with Jesus over food in a sacred meal known as Convivium.
