Access to God the Father

Luke 11:2 We are in a study of Luke chapter 11, verses 2-4, Jesus teaching his disciples to pray. He said to them in Luke 11:2-4, “When you pray, say, ‘Father, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come. Give us each day our daily bread, and forgive us our sins, for we ourselves forgive everyone who is indebted to us. And lead…

What It Means to Call God Father

Luke 11:2-4 We are in a study of the Lord’s Prayer, Luke 11:2-4, and as we’re in the habit of doing, we’re going to begin this morning just by reading that text, just that portion, starting in Luke 11:1, “Now Jesus was praying in a certain place, and when he finished, one of his disciples said to him, ‘Lord, teach us to…

Before You Call God Father

Luke 11:2 If you have your Bibles, you’ll want to open them to Luke chapter 11. We’re going to get into Christ’s most basic instruction, here, on how to pray, which puts us into the first set of petitions, which have to do with God and his interests. So this addresses God as “Father.” We’re going to make a connection to what…

The Fourfold Privilege of Prayer

Luke 11:1 Last week we began to introduce a series on the Lord’s Prayer from Luke chapter 11, so I’d invite you to turn back to Luke chapter 11. Today we intend to finish our introduction. Last week was part 1 of the introduction; this is part 2. So today we’re going to try to gain a greater appreciation for the gift…

Lord, Teach Us to Pray

Luke 11:1 I’d like to invite you to turn to Luke chapter 11. If you’re new to Grace Church, we want to welcome you to a study that’s been in progress for quite a while, now. We’re studying Luke’s Gospel, and we find ourselves in the eleventh chapter, which means we are embarking on a new study. For the next several weeks, we’re…

One Necessary Thing

Luke 10:38-42 In our study of Luke’s Gospel, we, we have come here to a scene that puts the authenticity of Scripture on display.  We see an older, very responsible sister, complaining about her younger sister.  So no matter what period of time in history, no matter what culture, some things like sibling conflicts, well, they just don’t change, do they?  So…

The One Who Showed Mercy

Luke 10:30-37 We’re continuing the study of the Good Samaritan story, and it’s found in Luke 10:30-37. We’re going to pick up where we left of last time—kind of. I’ll give you just a little bit of a review, here. The story of the Good Samaritan is, as you know, a simply story. It’s not complex or difficult. There’s a lot of…

The Loving Samaritan

Luke 10:29-35 Find your way to that well-worn area in your Bibles called Luke chapter 10. I invite you to turn there—Luke chapter 10. We’re going to be looking at the story of the Good Samaritan. I’d hoped to do this sermon in one shot. If you’d like to stay until 3:00 this afternoon, we’ll do that. [Laughter] Otherwise, I’ll have to…

Jesus and the Loveless Lawyer, Part 2

Luke 10:25-28 We’re in Luke chapter 10, verses 25-28, to continue what we were looking at last week. As we introduced this section last week, we learned that verses 25-28 are not merely a prelude or an introductory portion to lead us to the Good Samaritan story. But verses 25-28 are in and of themselves part one to a larger point, which…

Jesus and the Loveless Lawyer, Part 1

Luke 10:25-28 It is a joy to return to Luke’s Gospel, to come to a new section and find yet another opportunity to see and to savor Jesus Christ. If you’re not there already—Luke chapter 10—we’re going to be starting in verse 25, where we will meet a certain lawyer, a man with so much going for him. And yet he was…
