02 - Party for 5,000

Opening Questions:
Before viewing the session, here are a few important things to look for in Bianca Juárez Olthoff’s teaching. As you watch, pay attention to the following questions.
How did Jesus feed 5,000 men?
What does love look like to a hungry person?
Deeper Walk:
Reflect: God cannot multiply what we do not recognize. Spend time thinking through your tangible resources—finances, belongings, people in your life—and assets not so tangible, such as education, emotional stability, spiritual support, and more. Thank God for reminding you of the blessings that he has given you. Then ask him how you can use what he’s given to you to love others.
Study: The miracle of the feeding of the 5,000 is in each Gospel. Take some time this week to read each passage. Compare and contrast the various characters, actions, and words: Matthew 14:13–21; Mark 6:30–44; Luke 9:10–17; John 6:1–15.
Research: Look through your pantry, freezer, and refrigerator. Make a list of everything there, then research recipes that include those ingredients. Check out the recipe cards that go with this series for inspiration. Invite some friends over for a creative meal.
Pray: Ask God to reorient the way you see yourself, your strengths and weaknesses, and his ability to bless you—and bless others through you.
