Week 4: Jesus: Bread of Life
May 5, 2024
John 6:35 NIV
John 6:50-51 NIV
Bread (Jesus) is a necessity
Not an add-on
Our capacity for heavenly life
“It would seem that Our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us… like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea.
We are far too easily pleased.”
- CS Lewis, Weight of Glory
