Revealing Christ’s Glory: The Miracle at Cana

Revealing Christ’s Glory: The Miracle at Cana

In this episode of the Defender Bible Study, Herbie Newell leads us through John 2:1-12, where Jesus performs His first public miracle by turning water into wine at a wedding in Cana. This miracle reveals the compassionate heart of Christ and His divine authority over creation. Herbie emphasizes how Christ cares for even the smallest, most ordinary needs and how His miracles point to a deeper faith, calling us to reflect His heart in our service to vulnerable children and families. Join us as we explore how Christ’s glory is revealed in His care for the ordinary, His sovereign authority over all creation, and the invitation to deeper worship.
