Priority Seeking

If you've flown on an airplane, or gone to a concert venue, perhaps you have found yourself in Priority Seating, with its evident privilege of extra legroom, better view, or more. If that's not your experience, you've probably seen others given this priority and wish you had the privilege. Just going to church is not seeking first the Kingdom. "Going to church" is not evidence of priority seeking. Christians live out the implications of our citizenship in the Kingdom on a day-to-day basis in this world. Often, when the opposite is true, the worries of this world and the cares of this life become all-encompassing and overwhelming. Terry shares these themes from Luke 12, helping us reconnect with the source.

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.
