This Sunday, Pastor Ray will kick off a 5 week series on the three parables found in Luke 15. We'll start this Sunday with the parable of the Lost Sheep.
Before you get into the parable, it is most important to understand the context found in Luke 15:1-2. Jesus is talking to Pharisees who were complaining that Jesus does not spend enough time schmoozing with the religious elite, but with "sinners"! These parables are directed to them, but they show a lot about God's heart for the lost, hurting, struggling! Praise God that he seeks us out and rejoices over our salvation!
Here's the leaders guide and the participants guide.
