CHAPEL BULLETIN FEBRUARY 14, 2016

LUKE 9:51-19:27 shows Jesus’ journey with His disciples from His ministry in Galilee to the focal point of His mission, His death and resurrection in Jerusalem. In this section of Luke, known as the Travel Narrative, we see Jesus slow down and prepare His followers for what is to come by telling many stories. Throughout Lent we will join Jesus on His journey from Galilee to Jerusalem, and we will listen to His stories. We will encounter memorable characters and images that illustrate the Gospel; and most importantly, we will ponder the meaning of these parables and imagine our place in Jesus’ stories, using Luke’s Travel Narrative as our roadmap to better understanding the Gospel.

“Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father has been pleased to give you the kingdom. Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will never fail, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys.” — Luke 12:32-33The Bible has a lot to say about how we steward the resources God has entrusted to us. For every message series we will highlight one verse that relates to both the theme of the series and our reasonable response to give back to God, who gave everything for us.
