Luke 13:31-35 - Sermon - Jesus’ Lament: The Vision of Jerusalem and Our Own Hearts


Listen Later

In this sermon, we explore Jesus’ deep lament over Jerusalem in Luke 13:31-35. Why does He grieve for the city, and what does that have to do with us today? Jerusalem wasn’t just a place—it was a vision of flourishing, of a life centered on God’s presence. Yet, time and again, it rejected that calling.Like Jerusalem, we often turn away from the life God invites us into. Whether it’s distractions, self-sufficiency, or misplaced priorities, we too struggle with being "not willing." But in His lament, Jesus also reveals His tender compassion—longing to gather His people like a mother hen sheltering her chicks.Join us as we unpack the meaning of Jerusalem, the weight of rejection, and the relentless grace of Jesus, who still invites us into His vision of life and flourishing. What would it look like for you to run to Him this week?
