The faith of a Canaanite woman

Apr 26, 2026    Shawn Sanderson

In this message, we look at the story of the Canaanite woman—a mother who faced silence, rejection, and social barriers, yet refused to leave the presence of Jesus without a blessing.

Her faith teaches us three powerful truths:

• Desperate Faith — Turning to God when you have no other options.

• Determined Faith — Pressing through the silence and rejection.

• Dependent Faith — Trusting that Jesus tests our persistence to grow our character.

Jesus traveled fifty miles for this one encounter. He knows your name, He knows your need, and He is stirring up your faith even in the silence. Don’t give up—your breakthrough may be closer than you think.
