The Book of Luke

10 Weeks

Big Idea of the Series

This ten-week series examines a number of unique passages in the book Luke, helping us to better understand Jesus’ work and ministry. We’ll learn how the nativity teaches us to expect the unexpected with God. We’ll see the centrality of prayer in the life and ministry of Jesus, the special place for women among his followers, and the way Jesus saw and loved those society ignored or despised. We’ll discover the lessons found in the stories Jesus told: the prodigal son and the rich man and Lazarus. We’ll discover the centrality of the grace of God to Luke’s Gospel and the way that grace transforms the lives of those God redeems. Finally, we will end with the glorious promise found in Jesus’s resurrection.

Using This Series Guide

What is the Series Guide?

The Series Guide is a comprehensive resource designed to help you lead your congregation through this sermon series. It includes weekly sermon outlines, discussion questions, and key theological insights to support your teaching preparation.

Each guide has been thoughtfully crafted to provide you with both depth and flexibility as you prepare your messages.

This series includes 10 weeks of content.

What is the Series Guide Not?

The Series Guide is not a word-for-word sermon script. It's not meant to replace your own study and preparation, but rather to complement it with additional resources and structure.

It also doesn't include all media assets - those are available in the downloads section.

How Do I Use this Series Guide?

We recommend starting with the series overview to understand the big picture themes. Then, for each week, review the scripture passages, main points, and illustrations provided.

Use the discussion questions for small groups or to spark your own thinking. Feel free to adapt any content to fit your congregation's specific needs and context.
