The sermon focuses on Luke 19 and the story of Zacchaeus, showing that Jesus came “to seek and to save the lost.” Pastor McKinley emphasizes that salvation begins with God’s gracious initiative, is extended through Jesus’ generous invitation, and meets humanity’s greatest need for forgiveness and transformation. Using Zacchaeus’ encounter as an example, the message highlights how encountering Jesus is not merely informational but truly transformational, leading to repentance, new life, and lasting change.
