Start with a soldier who calls himself unworthy, move to a funeral that stops mid-street, visit a prison cell full of questions, and end at a dinner party undone by tears and perfume. Luke 7 doesn’t just tell stories; it shows what happens when humility meets authority and mercy.

We walk through the centurion who understands command so well he trusts Jesus to heal with a word. That insight into authority sparks a deeper look at prayer, dependence, and what it means to approach God without entitlement. From there, we step into the shock of a young man sitting up from his coffin and the hush that follows when people realize death just lost an argument. These moments anchor big themes—sovereignty, compassion, and the difference between our desired outcomes and God’s better plan.

John the Baptist then gives voice to doubts we hesitate to admit. From prison he asks, “Are you the one?” and Jesus answers with Isaiah’s proof points—sight restored, good news preached—while quietly omitting “captives set free.” We talk about the courage to bring honest questions to Jesus, and the blessing of trusting him even when deliverance doesn’t come on our timetable. Along the way, we confront the crowd’s criticism—John is too austere, Jesus too social—and why real discipleship will always draw heat from both sides.

It all culminates with a woman known for sin pouring out costly love at Jesus’ feet. Through the parable of two debtors, we explore how understanding the size of our forgiveness expands the size of our love. If our sin seems small, our worship stays small; when grace feels infinite, devotion becomes bold, grateful, and unashamed. Expect practical takeaways: embrace humble faith like the centurion, voice doubt like John without quitting, refuse people-pleasing religion, and let forgiveness lead your worship. If you’re hungry for a grounded conversation about faith, doubt, authority, and grace, this one will meet you where you live.
