Sending the 70, or 72...or YOU

According to Luke 10:1-24

July 28, 2024 • Michael Stufflebeam • Luke 10:1–24

What is our purpose in life? In this section of Luke's gospel (10:1-24), we see Jesus send out a large group of kingdom workers - giving modern followers insight into the mission to which he's called us in the process.

True Blessedness; Tragic Blindness

September 1, 2024 • Bruce Stabbert • Luke 11:27–36

In this oft-neglected section of Luke's gospel, we see how Jesus is both greater than Solomon, greater than Jonah - and worthy of our full and attentive listening. Bruce ends with telling us why he wants, more than anything, to see Jesus personally someday.

How To Cure A Pharisee

September 8, 2024 • Nate Corley • Luke 11:37–54, 1 Timothy 1:14–15, Philippians 3

"Pharasaism" is one of the most deadly sins because it's so hard to see in yourself. It's like carbon monoxide: deadly, but invisible. So what's the solution? In Luke 11:37-54, we hear some of the strongest words from Jesus in all of scripture as he rebukes the Pharisees for their pride and hypocrisy. We'll consider ourselves in light of these words ("am I a Pharisee?"), and then consider how the path to "curing" a hard-hearted Pharisee is not guilt or hard work - but grace. And grace is exactly what Jesus is happy to supply in abundance, even to Pharisees.

Greed and God

September 22, 2024 • Bruce Stabbert • Luke 12:13–21

The Bible has a lot to say about about money, greed, and covetousness. So how come so few of us confess the sin of greed? Or see greed as a major spiritual threat? In Luke 12:13-21, Jesus tells the parable of the rich man and his bigger barns to expose the foolishness of our perspective on money - and point us to something of eternal value.
