This week’s Moment of Truth: Matthew 8:5–11
“When Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came forward to him, appealing to him, ‘Lord, my servant is lying paralyzed at home, suffering terribly.’ And he said to him, ‘I will come and heal him.’ But the centurion replied, ‘Lord, I am not worthy to have you come under my roof, but only say the word, and my servant will be healed. For I too am a man under authority, with soldiers under me…’ When Jesus heard this, he marveled…”
A Roman centurion steps onto the frontlines—and Jesus takes notice.
A man under authority. A man who commands others. A man who understands how authority actually works. And when he stands before Christ, he doesn’t posture, argue, or hesitate.
He trusts.
He knows that if Jesus says the word, it’s done.
Jesus didn’t just respond—He was amazed.
This week’s "Moment of Truth" brings you face-to-face with that reality—where what you believe shows up in how you live.
