What if the greatest faith Jesus praised in Matthew 8 did not come from the disciples, the synagogue, or the covenant insiders, but from a Roman centurion standing in occupied Galilee?

Welcome to The Semi-Seminarian — Pastor Jim Wilhelm walking slowly through Scripture for those listening alone in the dark. In this Sunday sermon on Matthew 8:5–13, we look closely at Jesus and the Roman centurion, the servant healed from a distance, and the astonishing words that made Jesus marvel: "Just say the word."

If this sermon finds you, tithe that subscribe so the bell rings again next Sunday.
