Rediscovering Jesus' Kingdom: Nothing To Offer
Sermon Notes Family Sermon Notes
Jesus says, “ Until you become like a child, you will never inherit the kingdom.” A kingdom unlike the world has ever known. While the kingdom of God is a huge concept, the book of Luke helps us understand all that Jesus meant by this. Children receive from Jesus, while adults project onto Him. Children depend on Jesus, while grown ups often resort to Him. Children share Jesus, while adults protect Him. Children want Jesus, while grown ups often want something from Him. Children know that anybody who wants to be with Jesus can be with Jesus. If Jesus loves the little children, and asks us to become like children, then anybody can come to Jesus. YOU can come to Jesus.
From Series: "Rediscovering Jesus' Kingdom:: Leawood"
How long have we been waiting for 2021? It feels like a decade. Here we are, finally in 2021, but not much seems different. I know there is light at the end of the tunnel, but waiting is hard. We might be tempted to lose heart. Lose heart in our calling to love our neighbor as ourselves. We might lose heart in God’s people as this has been a very divisive time in our lives in many ways. We might lose heart in God himself. Nothing tempts us to doubt God like hard times. We can often ask, “Is Jesus actually doing anything right now? If he is, why is it so difficult? What do we do about it?” Today Jesus begins that conversation through a parable to show us we must not lose hope in His coming kingdom.
