In this powerful exploration of Luke 9, we dive deep into the miracle of Jesus feeding the 5,000. This story isn't just about an incredible display of divine power; it's a profound lesson in faith, trust, and the principles of God's economy.

This process reminds us that our faith journey involves both vertical and horizontal relationships - loving God and serving others.
