Here is a short write up:

Dinner with the King (of awkward)

Luke 14:1-24

Jesus might have been the most awkward dinner guest if all-time! He put people in uncomfortable situations so that he could deliver transformational truth. Listen to the freeing truth he delivers in this passage.

Matthew 12:9-32

Jesus heals... and the Pharisees want to kill him for it. The Pharisees were so interested in pointing out people's lack of faith that they failed to see the flicker of faith that existed. Jesus came to ignite faith, not to condemn unbelief.

Luke 5:33-39

It's hard to let go! Especially when we have believed something for a long time. In this passage, Jesus confronts the Pharisees on some of their deeply held beliefs. He invites them to let go in order to receive something better. I think he asks us the same question!

Luke 5:27-32

Jesus got himself killed because of the people he hung out with and ate with. Levi was one of those people. A tax collector. A sinner. A person completely unworthy of God. But then again, aren't we all? When we lose sight of our need, we cease to be people who hold out the hope of the gospel to others.

Matthew 5:17-20

Jesus says that his followers must have a righteousness that surpasses that of the Pharisees. What does that mean and how can it become a reality?

1 Chronicles 29:10-20

2 Samuel 12:1-14

2 Samuel 9:1-13

2 Samuel 7:18-29

There is a difference between being people who receive promise and people who walk in promise. In this message we explore how to become the type of people who live in the great promises of God.
