Dotted Circles: Where the Church is

Listen Later

Jesus used table fellowship to bring people close and put the presence of God on display for their transformation. The problem with Jesus is that he went to all of the wrong people to share God's presence. These "tax collectors and sinners" landed Jesus with the label "drunk and glutton" (Mt 11:19) and also set the context for the three parables we will focus on this Sunday in Luke 15. 

Questions to reflect on as you prepare for Sunday:

  • Make a list of the people you spend the most amount of time with. How many on that list do not have a relationship with Jesus?
  • What is your biggest fear in investing your time and energy into having real relationships with people who do not share your values and worldview?
  • Spend some time in prayer asking God to reveal to you who you struggle to have a relationship with and ask that he place you in situations where you have to explore Jesus’s depth of love and compassion for those people.
