     | 2,247 views

    Excuses can rob us of God's best. They are an enemy of great faith and accomplishment. In this examination of Luke 14:15-24, we learn from Jesus's story about those who excused themselves from a great feast. Those people missed the opportunity of a lifetime.

    Intro We take as our text today Luke 14:15-24. Follow with me as we read that passage. “Now when one of those who sat at the table with Him heard these things, he said to Him, ‘Blessed is he who shall eat bread in the kingdom of God! 16 Then He [Jesus] said to him, ‘A certain man gave a great ...read more

     | 1,514 views

    Las excusas pueden privarnos de lo mejor de Dios. Son enemigas de la gran fe y de los logros. En este análisis de Lucas 14:15-24, aprendemos de la historia de Jesús sobre aquellos que se excusaron de asistir a un gran banquete. Esas personas perdieron la oportunidad de su vida.

    Introducción Hoy tomamos como texto Lucas 14:15-24. Acompáñenme a leer este pasaje. “Oyendo esto uno de los que estaban sentados con él a la mesa, le dijo: Bienaventurado el que coma pan en el reino de Dios. 16 Entonces Jesús le dijo: Un hombre hizo una gran cena, y ...read more

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Aug 29, 2025
     | 202 views

    The crucified and resurrected body of Jesus thus represents the ultimate paradox’ and provides the necessity for disability. Jesus became so completely identified in his life and teaching with the lowest place, not only in the Eucharist by being disguised as the poor.

    Imagine this situation, if you will: a husband comes home from work on a Friday afternoon, as he drives into the driveway, he sees that there is a rented tent in the back yard. Under the tent are tables and chairs for about forty people. A bandstand and dance floor are assembled in one corner of ...read more

     | 284 views

    In some way the prayer for or mention of the Philippians, in his mind, makes the folks in Philippi somehow present to him.

    Friday of the Thirtieth Week in Course Today’s Gospel can be entitled “the hierarchy of laws.” Jesus is the ultimate wise man—distinguished from the more common “wise guy” by asking a question that anybody in a non-mechanical society could feel reasonable.
