Big Idea
Jesus meets real physical need, but He presses deeper: our greatest hunger is for Him, and He alone can satisfy with life that lasts.
Law: We chase quick satisfaction and treat Jesus like a means to an end, wanting gifts without surrender.
Gospel: Jesus gives Himself as the Bread of Life, not to manage our cravings, but to make us alive forever in communion with Him.
