Luke

If ever you wondered if Jesus is really human, study Luke’s Gospel. As a doctor, Luke revealed the down-to-earth compassion that pervaded Jesus’ life, revealing Him as God in the flesh. Our teacher, Dr. J. Vernon McGee, leads us in seeing how Jesus is the Son of God, our great High Priest, touched with the feelings of our weaknesses, able to extend help, mercy, and love to us. 

Thru the Bible -- Gospel of Luke

Twice in Luke 2, Mary is described as treasuring what she witnessed in Jesus's life. She pondered the sacred moments God brought her into. In this five-day reading plan, Brittany Rust explores those moments and how we might both treasure and ponder God's work and Person.

Sacred Moments With Christ

Year after year, millions of people do their best to make the excitement and festivities of Christmas Day match the anticipation that precedes it. But what about the first Christmas? Why did it happen? And was anyone disappointed? This plan focuses on the wonder, mystery, and purpose of the first Christmas—challenging us to praise God for His goodness as we receive and remember His gift of salvation.

The Wonder and Mystery of Christmas

A blind beggar crying out desperately by the side of the road, an immoral woman despised as dirty by polite society, a corrupt government employee hated by all – how could any of these people from society’s fringes hope to connect with a holy God? Based on insights from the book of Luke in the Africa Study Bible, follow Jesus as he bridges the gap between God and the marginalized.

Following Jesus Our Mediator

Christmas is a season of wonder. So, let’s lay aside our lists, distractions, and cares to receive refreshment by reflecting upon a few of the nativity’s highlights. Reminding ourselves, that the story we love so well speaks directly into our lives today by pointing us to Lord Jesus. Realizing that in this lifetime, we will only begin to scratch the surface of Who He is and what He has done.

A Week of Christmas Wonder

He Shall Reign is a two week Advent study from New Life Church of Arkansas. Throughout this plan, we look at the anticipation of Christ's birth and how He came to establish His kingdom on earth. Our prayer is that this study would remind you of the unshakable reign of our Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace. 

He Shall Reign

Encountering Jesus changes everything. Peter realized his sinfulness after Jesus miraculously filled his empty fishing nets. The paralyzed and blind realized they needed forgiveness more than physical healing and then they received both. Two sisters encountered Jesus and discovered worship trumps service. Meander through these stories and more in the gospel of Luke, and discover how Jesus fills our nets and restores our brokenness, one personal encounter at a time.   


Empty Nets & Broken Lives 

This reading plan explores the third Gospel. Luke described Jesus Christ as the one who saves. Humanity is lost and desperate, without help or hope, in need of salvation. The third Gospel reminds us that Jesus died to save us.

The Gospel According To Luke

The Christmas story is found in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke. An Angel visits Mary to tell her that she would give birth to the Son of God. Jesus is born in Bethlehem. The shepherds come to see him, and the Magi from the east follow a star to Jesus.
