Jesus for Everyone: Exclusively Inclusive 58:31

4 days ago58:31

58:31

The Gospel of Luke is the most detailed and comprehensive account of Jesus’ life, revealing how He reached people from all backgrounds with His message of hope and salvation. Throughout this series, we explore how Jesus interacted with the outcasts, the religious, the rich, and the poor—demonstrating that He came to seek and save the lost. No matter who you are or where you come from, Jesus is for everyone. Join us as we walk through Luke’s Gospel, uncovering its powerful themes and life-changing truths. Whether you’re new to faith or a longtime believer, this series will deepen your understanding of who Jesus is and what His message means for you today. Subscribe for more! Don’t miss an episode—follow along on YouTube and your favorite podcast platform as we explore Jesus for Everyone. Reflection Questions: Why do you think Jesus described the way into the Kingdom as a “narrow door,” and how does that challenge our modern mindset about faith and salvation? Jesus says that many will try to enter but will fail—what do you think He means by that, and how can we be sure we are truly walking in His way? How does Jesus’ warning about the door closing impact the way we think about time, priorities, and the urgency of our faith? In what ways does the paradox of Jesus’ invitation being both exclusive (“only through Him”) and inclusive (“for all who come”) shape our understanding of God’s grace and justice?…

Do you ever struggle to remember God’s faithfulness in your life? In this powerful sermon, The Practice of Remembering, we explore why remembering God’s goodness is essential for building faith, enduring trials, and deepening our relationship with Him. Through Psalm 103 and 1 Samuel 7, we learn how spiritual remembrance fosters gratitude, motivates worship, and strengthens our trust in God’s promises. Just as Samuel raised an Ebenezer stone to mark God’s help, we, too, can create reminders of God’s faithfulness in our lives. Join us as we discover how the Holy Spirit empowers us to recall God’s blessings, turning past struggles into testimonies of His grace. If you’re looking for inspiration, encouragement, and practical ways to grow in your walk with Christ, this message is for you! 🔔 Subscribe for more sermons on faith, spiritual growth, and biblical encouragement!…
