Dogs? Matthew 15:21-28

I was reading this passage the other day and I thought it very interesting. I thought, "Is Jesus really calling her a dog?" What the heck I thought he was supposed to be loving and caring towards the Gentiles and here he is telling her that she is a dog and she has to convince him to heal her daughter. Take an in depth look at this passage looking at the context and what Jesus was essentially saying to this Canaanite woman. Answer the questions:

WHO?

WHAT?

WHEN?

WHERE?

WHY?

What was Jesus sent here, meaning the earth, to accomplish? Who did he come for?

This is an interesting passage to wrestle with. So be ready to talk about it on wed and BRING YOUR JOURNALS!!!!!!!!!!
