We continue in Luke 5 as we listen to the passage of the paralyzed man being healed by Jesus, all of which was assisted by the paralyzed man's friends who helped him get brought down so that he can approach Jesus. This is a passage where we're able to realize that despite our struggles and sins, this race was never meant to be run alone but rather with those around us--on top of that, God's desire to save us is so much greater from our desire to be saved, so we hope this is an encouragement for all those who are fighting their spiritual battles at this moment.

As with the other Gospels, Luke also recounts the story of the leper whom Jesus healed when he approached him. In Jewish historical context, lepers were exiled into their own designated camps and yet the faith that the leper had a about Jesus being the healer and the risk he took to see him within the city, where he was banned from being in, was more than enough proof for the Son to heal his leprosy. In the end, we are all like the leper ourselves going through the process of forgiveness that Christ provides--and yet, he spends solitude with God through all this, not drawing the attention to him but to the Father.

We take a step back from our series in Luke this week and go back to one of Pastor Tim's previous sermon that he preached at the New Generation Conference back in summer of 2025. In the passage of Matthew 18, Jesus surprises the disciples with his answer to the question of who is the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven: children. To be stewards of His Words, we must embrace childlike faith in our lives.
