Disciples and Gospeling
Discipleship. We talk about it, romanticize it, read about it, and in the church, we even sing about it. Essentially, what Jesus offers in this passage in Luke 14 is this: for heaven’s sake, DO IT! Devote yourself to the way of Jesus in the Kingdom of God. We are either authentic and effective disciples, or we’re not disciples, and it doesn’t appear to be much in the in-between. We’ve been invited into hope. The question is: Will we participate? That’s a disciple!
Series Information
Terry proclaims the one Gospel through the history, research, rememberings and faith expressed in the text of the Gospel According to Luke. Jesus himself is the good news expressed by Luke. Beginning with the birth narratives unique to Luke's presentation, the good news of the Kingdom explodes into faithful view as each account, teaching, parable and event lived out and offered by Jesus, the Messiah-King, is examined the way Luke seemingly examined Jesus in his own work. Here we find a Jesus to love, a Jesus to follow, and ultimately a Jesus to worship.
