Jesus performs his first public miracle at a wedding in Cana, and he does it by turning somewhere between 120 and 180 gallons of water into wine, for people who had already been drinking. What was that about?
In part four of the message series, "Encounters with Jesus", pastor Chris Stockhaus walks through the story in John 2 and shows why this scene is doing so much more than solving a logistical problem at a party. Why does John use resurrection language when he talks about it? Why does Jesus use the ceremonial washing jars? And what does the extravagance of this moment tell us about who God is?
If you've ever wondered whether you have to clean yourself up before coming to God, this one is for you.
