Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 30, 2025

Jesus seeks us where we are, calls us by name, and transforms our lives with grace that leads to joyful repentance and welcome.

I wonder how many of us walked in today feeling small. Small under the weight of worries, small beside someone else’s success, small in the shadow of our own failures.

Zacchaeus PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Nov 4, 2025

Jesus sees beyond our past and reputation, calls us by name, and brings transforming grace and salvation personally into our lives.

Some of us walked in today wearing an invisible name tag. It doesn’t say “Hello, my name is…” as much as it says “Hello, my past is…” or “Hello, my reputation is….” Labels linger. Nicknames stick. Stories spread. And sometimes we start to believe them more than we believe the voice of God. We ...read more

God Knows You Personally SermonCentral

Contributed by SermonCentral on Sep 10, 2023

We all have names and are known by them. However, sometimes, our true selves are not reflected in these names. God, on the other hand, sees us for who we truly are. He calls us by our names, not as the world does. Zacchaeus was such a person, known by a name but seen differently by God.

We all have names by which people know us. Our names are a way for others to identify and recognize us. However, there are times when people fail to see us for who we truly are. But God sees us beyond our names; He sees our true selves. God calls us by our names, not as the world does. Zacchaeus ...read more
