The Silence That Speaks – Matthew 15:21-23
Why would Jesus stay silent when someone cries out for help? In Matthew 15:21-23, a Canaanite woman—an outsider from a long line of Israel’s enemies—calls Him “Lord, Son of David” before many Jews do. And yet… Jesus doesn’t answer.
This episode explores:
- Why Jesus stepped into Gentile territory on purpose
- How His silence became a teaching moment for His disciples
- The way tension can strip away bias and reveal God’s heart for the world
His silence wasn’t rejection—it was an invitation to deeper faith.
Reflection Question:
Have you confused God’s silence with His absence?
Challenge:
Spend 10 minutes in complete stillness today, simply resting in His presence and allowing Him to speak in ways words can’t.
