#427: There’s Enough at Jesus’ Table -Mark . Part . 26

Scripture References: Mark 7:17–30; Matthew 28:18–20; Romans 5:8

Jesus travels to the region of Tyre, where a Gentile mother boldly asks Him to heal her daughter. Jesus answers with a short parable about children’s bread and little dogs. Although His words may sound insulting to us at first, Jesus was not cruelly insulting this hurting mother. His parable showed the order of His ministry—Israel first, and then the Gentiles.

In this episode, kids will:

Learn what the word Gentile means.

Learn what a parable is and better understand Jesus’ parable about the children’s bread and the little dogs.

Discover that Jesus is the promised Messiah and Savior of people from every nation.

Understand that grace and salvation are gifts from Jesus—not rewards we earn by being good enough.

Like the mother in this story, we can approach Jesus not because we’ve been perfect but because He is good—and “while we were still sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8).
