[Jesus] said: ‘A man of noble birth went to a distant country to have himself appointed king and then to return. So he called ten of his servants and gave them ten minas. “Put this money to work,” he said, “until I come back.” (Luke 19:12-13, NIV)

While the people are looking at Zacchaeus and what happened to him, Jesus tells a parable. It's about himself as the king who will go away and then return to his people. In the meantime, he leaves his servants with work to do - the ten minas each. How will each servant act while he is away? What will they do with the money? What will Jesus find when he comes back? Why not come along on Sunday and find out more?

Jesus said to him, 'Today salvation has come to this house, because this man, too, is a son of Abraham. For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.' (Luke 19:1-10, NIV)

This Sunday, we meet Zacchaeus, a tax collector. The last time Luke wrote about a tax collector, it was a parable Jesus told. In it, he was pleading to God for mercy. Now we see what happens when a tax collector meets Jesus. It's not a parable, it's a real-life encounter, what will happen to Zacchaeus? Why not join us this Sunday and see more about what it would mean to meet Jesus for yourself?

Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus, praising God. When all the people saw it, they also praised God. (Luke 18:43, NIV)

When we left the disciples at the end of last week, they didn't understand. This week, Luke tells us of a blind man who does see: first that Jesus is the Messiah, and then when Jesus heals his sight. Why not join us this Sunday and see Jesus for yourself?

Jesus took the Twelve aside and told them, ‘We are going up to Jerusalem, and everything that is written by the prophets about the Son of Man will be fulfilled.’ (Luke 18:31, NIV)

In the midst of the questions about who is in the kingdom of God, Jesus pauses and tells his friends that he is going to die and rise again, just as the prophets had written. They didn't understand what he was saying. Why is this here? Why is the death and resurrection of Jesus in the middle of the questions about who is in the kingdom of God? Because Jesus is the only way to be part of the kingdom of God. Why not come along on Sunday and find out more?

A certain ruler asked Jesus, ‘Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?’ (Luke 18:18, NIV)
