From Longing to Belonging
We all fear being left out, being exposed as outsiders. Jesus constantly encountered people--like us--who were longing to belong. Luke himself was an outsider to Jesus' community, and yet there he found a new family and a new future. In his Gospel, we discover how Jesus responded to people like us. Jesus didn't simply redraw the lines and create a wider circle. He erased the lines by drawing all people to Himself, no matter their social status. Study Luke's Gospel and see how God made room--for everyone.

LUKE. In the New Testament's longest book, Luke, the physician friend of the Apostle Paul, reveals Jesus as the Man who came to save all-including women, the poor, the outcast, the sick, and the ordinary, everyday people of every nation. Luke's vivid, fast-moving report offers a gospel of reconciliation and celebration. This Bible study traces Luke's story from the announcement of Jesus' birth, through His ministry in Galilee and His training of the disciples on the way to Jerusalem, to His submission to the crucifixion and His ultimate triumph in the resurrection.
