The Pharisee & The Tax Collector | 1
Preacher: John Overton
Date: 9th January, 2022
Passage: Luke 18:9-14
Blurb: Come join us as John leads us in reflection on a famous parable, about two people who came before God. One man thought he had done everything right, but got it completely wrong. The other man knew he'd got things very wrong, but managed to walk away right with God. Come join us as we explore this wonderful parable of Jesus.
Jesus, the Children & the Rich Man | 2
Preacher: Kim Beales
Date: 23rd January, 2022
Passage: Luke 18:15-30
Blurb: How does a person enter the kingdom of God and receive eternal life? In this sermon we explore two contrasting stories that Luke has placed side by side. The first is a story about little children and the second is about a rich man. In these two stories we discover that it is impossible to enter the kingdom of God or to inherit eternal life by human effort, but rather the kingdom must be received like a little child. Yet we also hear the challenging call to discipleship that requires us to submit everything to Jesus. Come join us as we work out our discipleship together in these two powerful stories.
