The GOspel according to Luke

CURRENT teaching series

The Gospel of Luke was written by a physician named Luke to a man named Theophilus. After carefully investigating the life of Jesus, Luke wanted his readers to know the truth about what God had done—because with Him, there is nothing impossible. From before Jesus’ birth to His resurrection and ascension, Luke shows us a Savior who moves with compassion, filled with the Spirit, bringing good news to the poor and hope to the outcast. Through parables like the Good Samaritan and the Prodigal Son, we see God’s mercy on full display. Luke reminds us that Jesus came “to seek and to save the lost,” and that His power to redeem is still at work today—proving that with God, there truly is nothing impossible.

Join us for this teaching series as we journey through Luke’s Gospel together and discover again the God who still brings light to darkness, hope to despair, and life to what once seemed impossible.

BIBLE STUDY

N.T. Wright's devotional-style commentary on Luke is really eye-opening. Through stories, illustrations, and applications, he helps readers see through cultural and social roadblocks. No matter your spot in your journey with Jesus, this will be a great guide for you. Maybe that's why they titled the book Luke for Everyone.

APOLOGETICS

Luke desires to give certainty to his readers (1:4). Today, this practice of building intellectual, emotional, and spiritual assurance in the person and work of Jesus is called apologetics. Professor Douglas Groothius has written a helpful and accessible book for churches like ours called, Christian Apologetics.

JUSTICE

Luke's biography of Jesus details how the Son of God befriends people many of us forget (15:2). Both Ron Sider, Howard Thurman, and Justo Gonzalez have written seminal works on the subject for the modern Western Church. Sider's Rich Christians in the Age of Hunger opens our eyes to the poor. Thurman's Jesus and the Disinherited empowers us to seek racial reconciliation and harmony. Gonzalez's Mañana helps Christians see the power of God that liberates, heals, and makes us one. All will help you follow Jesus' heart more closely.

DISCIPLESHIP

Jesus wanted to shape something in his disciples. He wasn't merely after compliance with religious rules. He called them to the embodiment of the kingdom (8:10). Jasmine Holmes helps her readers see how this legacy has been carried on by the Black Church in modern history in Crowned with Glory. In The Deeply Formed Life, Rich Villodas helps the kingdom find deep soil that blossoms in the life Jesus invites his followers.

WOMEN

In Luke's world, women were not seen with the dignity and wholeness bestowed upon them by their creator. Jesus came to make the power and value of women plain (8:1-3). Rebecca McLaughlin goes through the gospel accounts and shows us exactly how Jesus sees women (by show us how they see him) in her book, Jesus through the Eyes of Women. In Redeeming Power, Diane Langberg laments the Christian Church's abuse power and points us to the way of Jesus for our correction, healing, and true strength.
