This coming Sunday we begin a new sermon series entitle “Encounters with Jesus” as we look at several different people that Jesus met during His time on earth.
For the next few weeks, we are going to look at different people that Jesus encounters. Throughout His life, Jesus encounters all kinds of people. Some were blind or had leprosy. Some were fisherman or tax collectors, or prostitutes. Some were the religious elite, the Pharisees, Scribes and Levites. There were people who faced racism, people who were ostracized because of their occupation or because of a disease. We are going to look and see how Jesus interacted with these different people and how they fit into the bigger story that Jesus taught, that the Kingdom of God was expanding. We are also going to learn that today, we can also be a part of that expansion story.
So I hope that you can come and see what we can learn from these Jesus encounters.
Have a great rest of the week.
