Sermon Details

This week, we begin a new series of sermons I’ve entitled, Jesus: The Man for All People. During the next five weeks of this season of Lent, we’ll be following the account of Jesus’ final hours leading up to the crucifixion through the Gospel of Luke. Each week, we will walk alongside Jesus in the excruciating and all too relatable experiences and emotions he endured in the final hours leading up to Calvary.
One of the things that make Jesus such a profound and personal Savior is that Jesus never experiences life as detached and non-feeling. Greek stoics and philosophers and eastern religions down play experience and emotion as the consequence of living physical lives, and that the true search is for life that transcends emotion and gets to the place of pure experience, sort of unfeeling and transcendent. Jesus, on the other hand, is intimately involved in the very height and depth of human emotion and the experience of being a person. We believe Jesus is fully human. That means he lives fully as a human, and thus is able to relate to us in every way, even in the feeling of being hurt and betrayed by a friend.
