SPB Sermons || 2 || Exodus || 16 || Who Shall Provide for Us?
<p>They had seen it all — the plagues, the sea, the freedom. And a month into the wilderness they wanted to go back. In this sermon from Exodus 16, Rev Andrew Irwin traces the story of the manna: bread from heaven, grace before rebuke, covenant sufficiency for the whole community, the Sabbath as defiance against Egypt's relentless logic, and the deepest lesson of all — that the God who rescued his people will sustain them one day at a time, until he brings them all the way home. And the manna, for all its wonder, was always a sign pointing to the better thing still to come: the Bread of Life. Preached at St Paul's & St Barnabas, Belfast — Sunday 31 August 2026. <a href="http://www.spbbelfast.church">www.spbbelfast.church</a></p><p><br></p><p><br></p>
