In 21st Century America, truth is often inconvenient and as a culture, comfort & convenience are a part of our mantra. The inconvenient nature of salvation causes many to choose 'religion of man' over a 'relationship with God.'

It has been said that "God is not all you need until He's all you've got, but when He's all you've got, He'll be all you need." In the story of the Feeding of the 5000, we discover this truth first hand.
