Matthew 8: Sermon in Overalls. DAVID HAUPT | Incomparable
David Haupt
Moving from the words of the Sermon on the Mount to the “Sermon in Overalls,” this message explores the powerful actions of Jesus in Matthew chapter 8. We see a Savior who demonstrates His creative power and authority by healing a leper, a centurion’s servant, and Peter’s mother-in-law—all outcasts in their society. The sermon then confronts a difficult question: If Jesus is a conqueror over sickness, storms, and demons, why is the path of discipleship so often filled with pain? Drawing from deeply personal testimony, this message distinguishes between being part of the “crowd” that seeks miracles and being a true disciple willing to pay the price, revealing a God who meets us not just in our triumphs but weeps with us in our suffering.
