Who Can Be A Disciple (Luke14:25-35)

It is only in light of the amazing love of God in Christ that we will remember that our offering of gratitude should be nothing less than a life of seeking to love Him in return with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength.

Table Talk (Luke 14:1-24)

Jesus wasn’t concerned about keeping the conversations cordial. He wasn’t avoiding particular topics to keep the peace. And that’s because He was dealing with issues that have eternal consequences. 

Will Those Who Are Saved Be Few? (Luke 13:22-35)

The exclusivity, inclusivity, and antinomy of salvation work in perfect harmony to provide the foundation and the hope for our ongoing gospel work. 

Interpreting Suffering (Luke 13:1-9)

Interpreting and explaining the purpose behind evil and suffering is not as easy or as simple or as prudent as many believe it to be. 

Peace or Division (Luke 12:49-59)

We must hold fast to the Gospel and continue to proclaim it regardless of the hostility, for it alone is the power of God unto salvation.

Be Ready! (Luke 12:35-48)

“These parables about servants and masters are some of the weightiest parables in the gospels.  They bring us face to face with our destiny and show us that we all need a Savior." - Philip Ryken

How Much More? (Luke 12:13-34)

Out of the surplus of grace and love and the good gifts that are ours in Christ, we can and should be rich toward God.

Combating Spiritual Hypocrisy (Luke 12:1-12)

Spiritual hypocrisy is a major issue and combating it is not easy.  But it is possible. 

You Might Be A Spiritual Hypocrite If (Luke 11:37-54)

"A spiritual hypocrite is one who is theologically informed, religiously active, morally conservative and whose heart is far away from God." - Phillip Ryken

Here's Your Sign (Luke 11:29-36)

Asking for a sign is simply a rejection of the greatest sign we will ever receive; and that, of course, is the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ.

Evidence that Demands a Verdict (Luke 11:14-28)

We are either for Jesus or we are against Him.  There is no neutral ground.

Teach Us to Pray (Luke 11:1-13)

We approach the King “with confidence of his fatherly goodness. . ." (WLC #189) because we are not only citizens of His Kingdom, we are His sons and daughters.
