Part 63 in the Book of Luke sermon series.
Jesus' disciples were exclaiming over their majestic Temple when Jesus astonished them by prophesying that within a short time, the Temple would be completely destroyed. His disciples then asked Jesus what signs they could expect to know when this life-shattering event would take place.

No Lost Is Too Lost - Luke 23:32-43
EASTER MESSAGE
Do you have friends and family who you've tried over and over again to show the truth of Jesus Christ, and who have rejected the message and possibly ridiculed you for your beliefs? Are there those people you think have gone beyond the power of being redeemed by Jesus? Or maybe you have given up on yourself - thinking you've sinned too much to be forgiven by the Lord?
Then, this message should encourage you and cause you to see that in the eyes of our Savior, no one is beyond the reach of His love.

Luke 20:41 - 21:4
Part 62 in the Book of Luke sermon series.
In the preceeding passage, Jesus had been questioned by some teachers of the Law of the Pharisee sect. He answered in such a manner that they dared not ask Him any more questions. Now, Jesus has a question for them. He also berates them for their arrogant behavior and unkind treatment of widows.
Then, Jesus does something that shows the Father's heart. He notices the sacrificial giving of someone who would have gone unnoticed by anyone else.

Luke 20:1-19
Part 60 in the Book of Luke sermon series.
Chapter 19 of Luke's gospel record ended with Jesus driving out those who were selling at the temple because in His words, "It is written, 'My house will be a house of prayer'; but you have made it a den of robbers." (Luke 19:46).
From the temple courts, Jesus taught the people about God's character, His holiness and His commands, and He preached the good news about the need for repentance and what He, Jesus came to offer those who would truly surrender their lives to Him.
Jesus was questioned by the religious leaders about His authority, and then He went on to tell a parable to the people concerning a vineyard owner and His tenants. He ended with a quote from Psalm 118 - "The stone the builders rejected has become the capstone (cornerstone)."
This message should cause us to examine ourselves to see whether we are truly seeking God with all our hearts and bearing fruit for His kingdom, or whether we are just practicing religiosity, being complacent with our lives.

Part 57 of the Book of Luke sermon series. This week, we travel with Jesus as He tells His disciples a parable describing what they were to be doing during the time after He was crucified until He again returns to the earth. That mission is relevant for all of His disciples today - go seek the lost and give them the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Luke 19:1-10
Part 56 of the Book of Luke sermon series. In today's passage, a tax collector named Zaccheus had an encounter with Jesus Christ, which changed his life. The message to us today is that no one is too far removed to be touched and changed by our Lord. This should give us hope for those we love and are praying for - God IS seeking them out.
