Ordinary 19: Rise and Eat (feat. Pr. Mielke)

Trinity Lutheran Church

Last week we heard about our spiritual hunger - the desire to be satisfied.  But this week the reading takes hunger to the extreme - when we are starving and can’t go on. Like Elijah who comes off a spiritual high to crash to the lows of fear and despair, the Lord wants to feed us with food that will make us truly live: Jesus, the Bread of Life.
