The Wedding at Cana

At a small-town wedding in Cana, the wine ran out—and with it, the joy, celebration, and honor that should have defined the moment. But Jesus was there. In this first of seven signs in John’s Gospel, we see more than a miracle—we see a message. This guest sermon explores how Jesus turns water into wine not just to save a wedding, but to reveal something profound about His kingdom: when life feels lifeless, when religion feels empty, and when joy has dried up, Christ offers an abundance of better wine.

This message invites us to see the emptiness of sin, the deadness of self-reliant religion, and the invitation of Jesus to receive true joy, life, and rest in Him. Whether you’re running dry or seeking more, the miracle at Cana shows us what it means to live with the fullness only Jesus can provide
