Luke 12.13-34, Deuteronomy 18.15

When life feels uncertain, where do we instinctively place our trust? In Luke 12.13–34, Jesus confronts our tendency to seek security in possessions, planning, and self-sufficiency, and invites us instead into a deeper dependence on God. This is not a warning against wealth or a scolding of the anxious, but a call to examine our allegiance. Jesus reminds us that the Father delights to give us the kingdom—and that true freedom comes when our treasure, and our trust, are firmly rooted in him.

Luke 12.1-12

Jesus warns his disciples about a faith shaped by approval rather than allegiance. In Luke 12.1–12, we are invited to examine the subtle influences — fear, tribalism, and performative religion — that quietly reshape our hearts. This is a call beyond echo chambers and appearances into covenant faithfulness, courageous confession, and Spirit-empowered trust.

Luke 11.42-54

In Luke 11.42–54, Jesus confronts a form of faith that is meticulous in practice yet empty of justice, love, and humility. This message invites us to examine whether our devotion produces Kingdom life or merely religious performance—and to hear Jesus’ hard words as a merciful call into the deeper, freer way of the Kingdom.

Luke 11. 29-41

Jesus stands before us, offering his light, yet too often we ignore it, focusing on outward appearances instead of the heart. In this message, we explore the warning to Israel’s leaders, the example of the Queen of the South and Nineveh, and what it means for us today to let Christ’s light transform our lives from the inside out.

Luke 11.14-28

In a clash between the powerless religion of man and the authority of the Kingdom, Jesus reveals what true deliverance looks like. It’s not ritual or struggle—it’s freedom spoken with divine authority. When Christ drives out darkness “by the finger of God,” the Kingdom has already broken in. This passage calls us to see the difference between empty religion and living power, between exorcism and deliverance, between appearance and obedience. The One who is stronger has come, and He still sets captives free. The question is no longer who has power—but whose side we’re on.
