Jesus’ feeding of the 5000 with only five loaves of bread and two fish is the only miracle (or sign) recorded in all four Gospels. Jesus said the crowds were like “sheep without a shepherd.” You and I are also like sheep. We too easily wander around lost, now knowing which way to turn. But Jesus, the Good Shepherd, leads his sheep to green pastures. Bread is a central theme throughout the Bible, not just the New Testament, but also in the Hebrew scriptures. Apart from resurrection, this is the most important miracle that Jesus performs. It’s not just for Jews, but for all the peoples of the earth, including you and me. Please join me as we study this crucially important miracle recounted in Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.
