Our current series includes a glance at a section of Luke and a few suggestions about things to look out for when reading that section. This week, Luke 4:14-9:50
The Bible talk is from a passage drawn from that section. The talk on Luke 8:26-39 is here.
As you read the chapters, look out for the variety of responses to Jesus and the teaching about how we should respond to him.
Look also for what Luke is showing us about Jesus—who he is and what he came to do.

We started a series in Luke’s gospel this week.
This is a brief explanation of the shape of the series.
For the next ten weeks our Sunday gathering will include a glance at a section of Luke and a few suggestions about things to look out for when reading that section. This week, Luke 1:1-4:13
The Bible talks will be on shorter passages drawn from that section. The talk on Luke 4:1-13 is here.
You might find this outline helpful to hang a few notes on. As you read, keep an eye for repeated words and ideas. Also, listen to what is said about the significance of John the Baptist… and how he relates to and is compared to Jesus.
