A Year In The Gospel Of Luke

Simpsonwood United Methodist Church is beginning a new, year-long sermon series starting Sunday, November 29, 2015 (the first Sunday in Advent).  The title of the series is "Luke: Seeking A Jesus Shaped Faith."  If you have come to this page looking for information on the series, you've come to the right place.

The premise of this series is that we should take a closer, sharper, deeper, and more-intentional look at the words of Jesus.  When we slow down our reading and take in Jesus' words, His words begin to transform our understanding and our actions.  The more we read Jesus' words and apply them to our living, the more our faith reflects the faith of Jesus.

Each week, we will study a short passage of Luke (no more than 25 verses).  On Sunday, the passage will be the focus of the sermon.  I want to encourage you to read the passage in your daily devotion as many days as possible before Sunday.

Each Monday by Noon, I will post ideas and questions about the passage for the week. I will also list other Scriptures that are connected with the passage.  My first post will be this coming Monday, November 23.  The first passage is Luke 1:1-25.

Please feel free to post questions and ideas in the comment section.  You can also subscribe to this blog at the bottom of this page by clicking "subscribe" so that you are automatically updated when there is a new post.

Thank you for joining us on this year long journey of developing a faith that resembles Jesus, our Lord and our Savior.
