Candy leads our chat through Luke 10:

It was so nice being together after our Thanksgiving break to discuss and learn more from familiar passages as Jesus makes his way to Jerusalem. In these passages, Jesus not only reveals what’s ahead, but also himself in the Transfiguration.

This week, we landed on the other side of a calmed sea-storm to the center of a tormented-soul-storm as Jesus continues to heal and perform miracles, all while gently training the Disciples (and us) for their (our) purpose and calling as his actions speak through the ages.

This week, Luke leads us through a few familiar stories that offer insight, encouragement and hope that inform the work and storms in our lives. But rather than go into it all, here’s our chat:

In today’s lesson, we such lovely and incredible encounters with Christ and his healing power – whether simply by speaking words of life or by touch, Christ continues to reveal his complete authority and love.

Luke invites us into Jesus’ famous Sermon on the Mount, encouraging listeners to “come” (be willing), “hear” (with ears opened by God), and “do” (action piece of trust and belief) — never in our own power, but in the complete, sufficient and whole power of God through Christ who is, who encompasses, who has done and is still doing the beatitudes of which Luke covers 4.

This week Luke invited us to walk alongside Jesus as his ministry begins to take off with crowds gathering, lives being changed, people met where they are and hearts tenderly yet steadfastly being molded.

This week we get a front row seat through the eyes of Luke to the beginning of Jesus’ ministry. It all started with a pause, 40 days of prayer and fasting in the wilderness culminating in a temptation session to set the stage for Christ’ absolute authority alongside his tender mercy toward and absolute victory over the human condition. What hope! What amazing love!

Hi all. Sorry for the tardiness of this note. With all the balls in the air, this one stayed up a bit too long. But the delay certainly doesn’t reflect the delightfulness of last week’s lesson. Candy gave some terrific historical background as we learned about John the Baptist’s ministry, his pointing to Christ and Luke’s lineage of Christ through Mary back to Adam.

What a lovely morning to linger in and catch new things as NT Wright lead us through the world/time/life-altering birth of Jesus to his encounter with Simeon & Anna to his Temple time with religious leaders at age 12. As is and has been the case, twists and turns alongside fulfilled and still to come prophesy fill Luke’s account. As does hope and joy. We learned that God is: King, faithful, safe, compassionate, merciful, all-seeing, Redeemer, Shalom, Provider and much more.
