Free Reading Plans and Devotionals related to Luke 7:24

Throughout the New Testament, Jesus shows compassion toward unlikely “sinners” who expressed great faith. Whether tax collectors, Roman centurions, or Samaritan women, Jesus repeatedly shows that he came to rescue people burdened with shame. During this plan, Bible teacher and author Kat Armstrong illustrates how these stories strengthen our understanding of God’s empathy and knowledge of how all types of people express beautiful faith in Jesus.

No matter what happens to “the things” of this world, Jesus remains the same--faithful and true! In this 7-day plan, Rich Wilkerson, Jr. offers insights from four powerful stories in the seventh chapter of Luke to remind us that the Sandcastle Kings of this world will undoubtedly come and go, but lasting peace and joy are found in Jesus alone.

Luke’s Gospel is a beautiful and powerful telling of the life of Jesus. Luke focuses on Jesus as the Son of Man, the foretold Messiah who came to “seek and save the lost” (Luke 19:10). This Gospel shows us the “Upside-Down Kingdom” - that God uses what the world deems foolish and weak to shame the wise and strong.
