We read Luke 5 and 6 and watch Jesus call unlikely people, heal with compassion, and confront religious resistance with calm authority. We also slow down to hear Luke’s version of the Sermon on the Mount and wrestle with Jesus’ warning that the storm-proof life is built on obedience, not just familiarity.
• Jesus’ unhurried pace and the reminder that trusting God means we are not behind
• The miraculous catch of fish and Peter’s response of awe and humility
• Jesus healing a man with leprosy and the pattern of withdrawing to pray
• Friends lowering a paralyzed man through a roof and Jesus forgiving sins
• Pharisees reacting to Jesus’ authority and the question of what real faith looks like
• Calling Levi the tax collector and the meaning of eating with sinners
• New wine and new wineskins as a picture of kingdom change
• Sabbath conflicts and Jesus healing the withered hand
• Jesus praying all night and choosing the twelve apostles
• Blessings and woes in Luke 6 and how they challenge comfort and status
• Loving enemies, practicing mercy, refusing judgment, and choosing forgiveness
• The house on rock as a call to listen and do, not just hear
