A Little Goes a Long Way
Worship Service: Informal Family - May 20, 2018
This Sunday we look at the story of “Gideon and the Loaf of Barley Bread” (Judges 7:7-15). Gideon had to reduce the size of his army, and he was now vastly outnumbered against the Midianites. But a strange dream about a ‘loaf of barley bread’ and a ‘tent' let him know that the Lord would still bring victory. In the Gospels, the Lord also fed the 5000 with only five loaves of barley bread. What does all this represent in our own lives? This is a Holy Supper service. | By Rev. Solomon J. Keal | Bryn Athyn Heilman Hall
