Every table in Luke's Gospel has led us to this table.

Luke's point all through his Gospel has been "The Son of Man came to seek and save the lost." Here, in the story of Zacchaeus, he illustrates what Jesus does for everyone who comes to him.

From the beginning of his Gospel, Luke has promised that Jesus will give sight to the blind. Here, as he approaches Jerusalem, he finally keeps that promise.

A rich man came to Jesus asking, "What must I do to inherit eternal life?" What must you DO? You have to be born into the family to inherit!

A Funeral Service for Jim Webb by Bret Hammond

The only thing you can bring to Jesus is your hopelessness.

One of the godliest things you can do for someone is hearing them.

When you give someone a reason to be thankful, you give them a reason to have faith.

The greatest poverty is loneliness; your greatest gift is yourself.

When you invest in other people, you're investing in the Kingdom of God.
