After a couple of Sundays away from the Gospel of Luke, we now return to it this Sunday morning. We will be looking at what is sometimes called “the greatest sermon ever preached.” I am sure you will agree with me that the direct teaching of Jesus is often the most convicting. I call this Sunday’s message “Lessons for Disciples.” But it is also a great encouragement for us to seek the Lord with all of our heart.
On Sunday, we also have the joy of witnessing some of our brothers and sisters in Christ being baptized and others being received into the fellowship of Calvary. We praise God for those obedient disciples who are being baptized and making a public commitment to the Body of Christ at Calvary Church.
