Show Don't Tell: Matthew 15:29-31

Instead of saying "Jesus healed many on a mountainside," see the parade of healing. Jesus goes along the Sea of Galilee, up on a mountainside, and sits down. Great crowds come—bringing the lame, the blind, the crippled, the mute, and many others. They lay them at his feet. Watch what happens: the mute speaking, the crippled made well, the lame walking, the blind seeing. One by one, condition after condition reversed. "And the people were amazed when they saw the mute speaking, the crippled made well, the lame walking and the blind seeing. And they praised the God of Israel." A Gentile region recognizing Israel's God through Israel's Messiah.
