We continue our series in the Gospel of Luke, one of four eyewitness accounts of Jesus’ words and works. In them we learn of his life, death, and resurrection to rescue a people of his own from among the nations—even us. Today, we come to one of the most moving scenes in Luke’s gospel, the healing of a desperate leper. But, this is more than a healing. It is a living picture of who we are, who Jesus is, and what He came to do. He came to cleanse desperate lepers, like us.
