Stories (The Gospel of Luke) Series || We see in the Transfiguration, after the smoke subsides, Moses and Elijah are gone and only Jesus remains. It reminds us that all attention and focus must be placed solely on Jesus. And yet we see throughout Luke 9 that many, including the 12, see but don't perceive the Father's will. May God open the eyes of our hearts so that we may perceive who Jesus is and fully understand how desperately we need Him.

Stories (The Gospel of Luke) Series || CS Lewis once said “The value of the myth is that it takes all the things we know and restores to them the rich significance which has been hidden by ‘the veil of familiarity.’ The child enjoys his cold meat, otherwise dull to him, by pretending it is buffalo, just killed with his own bow and arrow. And the child is wise. The real meat comes back to him more savory for having been dipped in a story…by putting bread, gold, horse, apple, or the very roads into a myth, we do not retreat from reality: we rediscover it.” Luke 8 presents the parable of the sower and the seeds. By seeing these truths placed into a story/myth, we rediscover the absolute importance of burying God's Word in our hearts.
