Title: Feeding the Multitude (5)
Series: Meals with Jesus

Text: Mark 6:30-44
ILLUS. - TG and Christmas meals ... big holiday meals in general, can look different depending on the size of your family. It could be you inviting people over and preparing a meal, or going over a to a parent or sibling's house. It could be like 8 people. However, it could be HUGE, it could be lots of people ... if you have a large extended family. - In those cases ... you are feeding lots of people and it is usually a TEAM EFFORT. - Someone makes X, someone else makes Y, and another person makes Z ... and some ... some ... have to bring cups and ice.

Mark 6:30-44 - 30 The apostles returned to Jesus and told him all that they had done and taught. 31 And he said to them, "Come away by yourselves to a desolate place and rest a while."
