Ben Chase continues our study through the gospel of Luke, looking at chapter 12. Sunday August 17, 2025
I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Monday morning, the 18th of August, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We go to the Gospel of Luke 17:5-6: “And the apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith. So the Lord said, “If you have faith as a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be pulled up by the roots and be planted in the sea,' and it would obey you.”I am talking this morning about faith. “But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.”Hebrews 11:6 As I was meditating on this scripture early this morning in my quiet time room, the Lord brought to memory what took place in my life on the 17th of November, 1989, a long time ago. I was sitting having my quiet time. I had been reading a book written by John Wimber, called Evangelism Explosion. In the back of that book, there were a whole lot of anecdotes and little cameos of mighty men and women of God who dared to believe God and to trust God by faith, and how the Lord had used them. Very few of them were qualified. They were ordinary working people just like you and I, and I got so excited. I got on my phone. In those days, we had the old phone, you had to crank it up, and I got hold of my pastor in Grey Town and I said to him, “Gavin, the Lord has revealed something to me today and I have to share it with you.” And he said, “What is it?” I said, “I have just been reading a book about men and women of God who have been used mightily by the Lord, and there is a golden thread that goes through each one of their stories, and it is one word, 'faith', having faith the size of a mustard seed."He got so excited, he turned around and took his ball-point pen, and wrote on the wall of his office, and the office had just recently been painted, and he wrote, “17th November '89” and he put my name there, and it stayed there until that church got repainted. Well, I want to tell you, that was the beginning. From there, I took that seed of faith and I went to a nearby town called Ladysmith, and I booked the town hall, the first thing I had ever done in my life, and that was the beginning of what the Lord has done, by faith, nothing to do with me.Today, I challenge you to trust the Lord for that thing that you are believing for, but it must be so big that if it is not of God, it is going to fail. Why? Because when it works, God gets all the glory. Jesus bless you walk by faith and not by sight.Goodbye.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Friday morning, the 15th of August, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We go to the Gospel of Luke 16:11-12:”Therefore if you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches? And if you have not been faithful in what is another man's, who will give you what is your own?” Those are strong words spoken by the Master Himself, our Lord Jesus Christ. Because we are Christians, that does not give us an excuse to be second-rate, to be slack, to be lazy, or not to do our best at work.If we are to be ambassadors of Jesus Christ in the workplace, then we need to do it as if we were doing it to God Himself. We need to operate in our God-given gift. I don't know how many young men and women I meet sometimes, ”I just want to serve the Lord.” Well, serve Him in the business field first, before you want to go out and preach to others. Now the Lord Jesus is talking about a man who is shrewd. “Shrewd” means having or showing sharp powers of judgement, being an astute operator or businessman. We need to work hard in the business field, not only for ourselves, but for our fellowman, but mainly for the Lord. Do it well, not for personal gain but as a witness for Jesus. Be the best farmer you can be. Be the best professional sportsman or woman you can be. Be a good teacher, an artist, a doctor, a truck driver as unto the Lord. I read something very encouraging and it goes like this: Individuals who integrate their Christian faith into their business practices and leadership, that's what God is looking for - integrity, honesty, service, impacting communities especially in the workplace, living out their faith in the marketplace.I looked up John D Rockefeller, an American businessman. He was in the oil business. They say that he was the most successful businessman of his era. He reminds me of Joseph. You know that Pharaoh made Joseph his prime minister. He was the second most powerful man on earth. Remember, he was a slave, sold into slavery, he made an impact, he saved a nation.Today, use your God-given gifts for the glory of God and enjoy what you're doing.Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day, Goodbye.

A political science major at a major university was having coffee with a campus pastor. The pastor knew that the student was wrestling with doubt about the existence of God and said to him, “John, you know all of us wonder at some point if it's all real or not. For example, there are quite a few stories in the Bible that are just hard to believe. Jonah and the whale and all that.” John smiled and said, “No, that's not my problem. What I wonder about is how God could care about me. I've done some really bad things and have had some really bad things done to me. I just can't understand the concept of forgiveness.”There you have it. Doubts about the faith come from all directions. While one person cannot bring herself to believe in miracles, another cannot forgive himself for the wrong things he's done, and can't fathom how God could. Thomas Jefferson actually cut out the miraculous sections of the Bible. He couldn't believe in what some would call the God of the Bible. Francis Crick, the co-discoverer of DNA, thought that Christianity was just a collection of mythical stories. And what about those who want to see the proof, they like evidence and feel a need to make an intellectual case for our faith. The New Testament writer Luke was like that. He wrote in Acts and the Gospel of Luke about the importance of eyewitness sightings of Jesus and His miracles. Lots of people debate whether evolution and religion are compatible or not. And this is a big stumbling block to believe for many. We all believe something, but our minds can struggle at times to grasp the big stuff, the infinite universe. While for others who doubt, the struggle is more internal. They're so grieved by their own sin, they can't accept that God could love them.Maybe the most famous verse in the Bible is John 3:16, which says, “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish, but have eternal life.” However, few quote the next verse which says, “For God did not send his son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.” It isn't God's wish to condemn you. Instead, He loves you and wants to give you assurance that life is more than struggle and molecules. Whether you're looking for evidence to believe the Bible or you just need to know that God loves you, try not to focus too much on your objections. Own them, but just tell God as a child would, that you're struggling to understand it all.Will you pray with me? Father, your grace saves us from a life of struggle with sin, and we are accepted by you. Thank you for putting up with our up-and-down faith. In Jesus' name, amen.

Jesus this week, as found in the Gospel of Luke, is not the Jesus we often think of, peaceful, and compassionate, and gracious. This Jesus knows what time it is, and is urgently trying to get those around him to look at the clock, too. His words are jarring, disruptive, and designed to wake folks up. It is a difficult saying, for a difficult season. Can we hear it?
I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Thursday morning, the 14th of August, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We go to the Gospel of Luke 15:31: “And he said to him, ‘Son, you are always with me, and all that I have is yours.” That was the response of the father when the prodigal son had come home after wasting all his money, and his father was so pleased to see him come back that he killed the fatted ox, and he had a party for his young son. The older son had been working all day in the fields. He came home and saw what his father had done for his brother and he was plain jealous. Another word for jealousy is resentment, bitterness, holding a grudge. Now I can hear somebody saying, “But I would be the same as the older son! I mean that young boy demanded his inheritance. He went and blew it on wine, women and song, lost everything, cost his dad and his older brother a lot more blood, sweat and tears, then he comes home and his dad treats him like a prince.” We need to be so careful that we do not lose our focus. His dad said, ”Son, I have given you everything I've got, you are going to inherit this farm. Why are you so upset?” We need to be so careful that we don't forget what God has given to us. Like you get a man who has been in the far country, he's been a reveller, a drinker, a fighter, a thief, then he comes to Christ and his sins are forgiven. They've been washed away. He is a brand new man in Christ.” …if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away…” 2 Corinthians 5:17Now, when you see that, and you've been serving the Lord for maybe 20 - 30 years, and this new boy on the block, he seems to be getting all the accolades, all the privileges and everybody's excited about him, but I want to say to you that the Lord loves you. He loves your faithfulness, He loves your hard work, He loves the fact that you have not dropped the ball, you have never let the Lord down, and there is a great reward waiting for you and me when we get to heaven. Remember, this is not the end of the road. This is only the beginning of the road! So have mercy on the person who has made a big mistake, but who has come home. Give them grace, give them love, let them get excited. Don't correct them all the time because they are so full of joy, their sins have been forgiven. Just remember that there is a great reward waiting in heaven for your obedience, your faithfulness, not falling by the way, but keeping on for the Lord.Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day,Goodbye

Audio Bible New Testament Matthew to Apocalypse King James Version
163 : Gospel of Luke 19 1. And Jesus entered and passed through Jericho. 2. And, behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich. 3. And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not for the press, because he was little of stature. 4. And he ran before, and climbed up into a sycomore tree to see him: for he was to pass that way. 5. And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said unto him, Zacchaeus, make haste, and come down; for to day I must abide at thy house. ; AB church Lausanne
Dirty feet, ugly toes! This weekend Pastor Joaquin Pardo concluded our SUNDAY BEST series with a message about serving one another. John 13:5Then he poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples' feet and to wipe them with the towel that was wrapped around him. In the final hours before His death, Jesus chose to spend His remaining moments humbly serving His disciples, kneeling to wash their feet.1) Greatness is spelled S.E.R.V.I.C.E.The Gospel of Luke gives us a glimpse into the conversations happening at the Last Supper.Luke 22:24A dispute also arose among them as to which of them was to be regarded as the greatest.In a moment when Jesus deserved all the attention, all the support, and all the love, His response was unexpected. Instead of demanding to be served, He said, in essence, “Let me show you what true greatness looks like.” And then He showed them—it looks like love.2) Service is spelled S.A.C.R.I.F.I.C.E.Jesus sacrificed and served even those who would betray Him. True service means laying down our bitterness, offense, and idols—the things that consume our hearts and blind us to others' needs. Instead of asking, “What have they done for me?” We follow Jesus by asking, “What can I do for them now?” Sacrifice is giving up what holds us back so we can serve with love.3) Sacrifice is spelled L.O.V.E.Jesus washing His disciples' feet was more than an act of service; it was a powerful picture of the sacrifice He was about to make on the cross. He took on our dirt, shame, and sin to make us clean and free. We sacrifice because we love. As He loved us first, we are called to love others through sacrifice.

The Gospel of Luke
What do you think Jesus really thinks of you? What's his deepest feeling toward you? If we're honest, many of us assume it's disappointment—that he merely puts up with us or tolerates us, but doesn't delight in us. Yet in the story of Zacchaeus, something far better rises to the surface: Jesus wildly welcomes us with an open heart. It's a welcome that meets us where we are but doesn't leave us there. It changes us from the inside out. This is the heart of the gospel. And when it sinks deep into our hearts, we begin to welcome others the same way. Join us this Sunday as we conclude our Love on the Move series and explore the transforming power of Jesus' welcome.Reflection Questions:1. How does Jesus' welcome toward Zacchaeus inform the way he welcomes you? How does it challenge the ideas you carry about how God sees you?2. What would it look like for you to take a humble, childlike step toward Jesus this week, like Zacchaeus climbing the tree?3. Where in your life is Jesus inviting himself in, not to judge or condemn but to welcome and transform?4. How is Jesus' welcome reshaping the way you welcome others, especially those who feel far off, overlooked, or undeserving?
This morning, we will continue our month-long exploration of the Revised Common Lectionary by studying the Gospel of Luke. In Luke 12, Jesus shares many lessons on faith and practice, and as we worship, we will listen as Jesus instructs the disciples on generosity and sacrificial giving before leaving them with one of the most enduring lessons in scripture, "where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." Sermon on Luke 12:32-34, delivered by the Reverend David J. Powers on August 10th, 2025.
Pastor Marco continues his study through the Gospel of Luke.

No matter who you are or where you come from, Jesus is for everyone.Join us as we walk through Luke's Gospel, uncovering its powerful themes and life-changing truths. Whether you're new to faith or a longtime believer, this series will deepen your understanding of who Jesus is and what His message means for you today.Subscribe for more! Don't miss an episode—follow along on YouTube and your favorite podcast platform as we explore Jesus for Everyone.Reflection Questions:In what areas of your life are you still acting like the boss instead of surrendering to Jesus?Is Jesus truly your cornerstone, or have you been treating Him as a stepping stone or stumbling block?How have you resisted Jesus' authority because it threatened your comfort, control, or plans?What step of surrender is God inviting you to take today to realign your life with Him?

Audio Bible New Testament Matthew to Apocalypse King James Version
162 : Gospel of Luke 18 1. And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint; 2. Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man: 3. And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary. 4. And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man; 5. Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me. ; AB church Lausanne
Audio Bible New Testament Matthew to Apocalypse King James Version
161 : Gospel of Luke 17 1. Then said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but that offences will come: but woe unto him, through whom they come! 2. It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones. 3. Take heed to yourselves: If thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him. 4. And if he trespass against thee seven times in a day, and seven times in a day turn again to thee, saying, I repent; thou shalt forgive him. 5. And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith. ; AB church Lausanne
Paul's letter to the church at Colossae concludes with admonition to speak with God regularly in prayer, and to speak graciously with others, acting wisely toward outsiders who do not yet know the mystery of Christ revealed through his gospel. After this, he includes a summary about the ministry of the gospel being performed through other faithful men. These include Tychicus and Onesimus who are delivering the letter, Aristarchus, who is also in prison with Paul, as well as Mark, Barnabas, Justus, Epaphras, Luke the physician who wrote the gospel of Luke and Acts. On a technical note, we'll actually be picking up at verse 2 since chapter 4:1 was covered in our last episode. :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org
I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Friday morning, the 8th of August, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We go to the first book in the Bible, Genesis 37:8: “And his brothers said to him, “Shall you indeed reign over us? Or shall you indeed have dominion over us?” So they hated him even more for his dreams and for his words.” Then we go to the Gospel of Luke 2:19: “But Mary kept all these things and pondered them in her heart.”Be very careful how you speak. Joseph, with the coat of many colours - he had those dreams. He shared them with his brothers. The dreams were not wrong, they were quite correct, but the timing was so bad that his brothers actually hated him, the Bible says. Even his mother and father were also very upset when he shared these dreams with them. There is a time to speak and there is a time to be quiet. Mary, the mother of Jesus, did not tell everybody what the Archangel Gabriel had told her. She kept all these things in her heart and she pondered them. We really need to be wise. Some of us, and I am probably one of the worst, we speak too quickly. We need to wait and allow others to speak on our behalf, or wait for the action to take place and it speaks by itself. Don't keep telling everybody.I looked up the word, “discretion”. Now, I really want you to listen to this, especially the young people. It means to be careful and prudent in one's speech or actions, especially so as to avoid giving offence or attracting attention. We don't have to attract attention to ourselves. If God has done something great in our lives, let the action speak for itself. Don't go around blabbing about what the Lord is going to do in your life, or a word, because all it will do is cause contention, especially in the home. There is a time and a place for everything. Joseph messed up big time because he spoke too quickly and told too many people. Today, go to the closet, speak to the Lord, share your heart with Him, and He will tell you at the right time and the right place to share your vision with others.Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day,Goodbye.
Last evening I was in Roanoke, Virginia, at the GoCenter. You can learn more about the Go Center at: https://www.gpartners.org/gocenter Iwas called to ministry in April 1971, on in a Sunday night service at LandmarkBaptist Temple in Cincinnati Ohio under a missionary named Bob Hughes. Withina few weeks of that night I heard that Thomas Road Baptist Church was startinga brand-new Bible college called Lynchburg Baptist College, I registeredimmediately and went there with my heart set on going to Africa to share thegospel. Yet during school, I was able to be part of a church plant inWinchester, Virginia, Shenandoah Valley Baptist Church. After graduating Godthen called me to be the pastor of that church. I never really got to be thatmissionary who went full-time to the mission field. Ibegan to realize that the Lord left me in America as a pastor to mobilize,influence, and send as many people as we can. And raise as money as I could formissions. Now with that background justrecently as we studied through the Gospel of Luke, we found that God gives theGreat Commission to His disciples to preach the gospel to all the nations, topreach the good news, the message of the kingdom that Jesus saves. The Gospelof Luke seems to be all about what Jesus said in Luke 19:10, "For theSon of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost." Asyou read through the gospels, every one of them ends with a reference to theGreat Commission. In John's gospel, Jesus said, "As the Father has sentMe, even so send I you." That was the commission to those disciples: Justas Jesus was sent as the Son of God to seek and save the lost we are to also tobe bringing this good news to a lost world around us. Over these past 50-plusyears of ministry, by God's grace we have been able to influence hundreds,maybe thousands of believers to love Jesus, to pray for missions, to go to theforeign field, and to give to missions. We've watched God do awesome things. I'minvolved in a ministry right now in India where we have 600 pastors I'mdirectly connected to. I went there in January of this year and took an individualpicture of 400 of them. I also got a bio of them at that time that I have onhand. It gives their name, their place of ministry, and how many churches theyare pastoring. I'm asking people like you to partner with me to pray for theseprecious pastors. Would you take one of these pastors into your heart? Inthe video I made of today, I'm standing in front of pictures of unreachedpeople groups in the world. I understand right now there are 3.4 billion peoplewho have little or no access to the gospel of Jesus Christ. Many of the pastorsI'm working with are ministering among the Koya people, the Banjari people, theChenchu people on the east side of India, and they are reaching these unreachedpeople groups with the gospel of Christ. But besides them are many otherpastors reaching many other people groups with the gospel of Christ. They desperatelyneed our prayers. Of course, they need money, and I'll talk about that in mychat tomorrow. But right now, I'm asking for prayer partners. Would you bewilling to join me as a prayer partner for one of these pastors? I will sendyou his name, his location, how many churches he's pastoring, the names of hisfamily members, and you can pray specifically for him and his ministry, and youcan join with me in impacting many lives for Christ. Ifyou feel that the Lord is leading you to join me in this prayer effort pleasesend me your name and email address to pastormike@pmiministries.org andI'll get back in touch with you. I beg you, I plead with you, join me as aprayer partner. I already have 100 people who have already joined with me topray for these 400 pastors. I just need another 300 prayer partners right now.I trust you'll be one of those 300 that will join me. We should all be a partof fulfilling the Great Commission.

There was a shop my wife and I went to when we were dating that had a "going out of business" sign in front. We went in and looked around. We even bought some things for a great price since they had reduced their prices because they were going out of business. There was a sense of urgency, like we had to take the offer now because soon it would no longer be available. I was a little suspicious when I saw that shop a year later and they were still "going out of business." I grew even more suspicious as that going out of business sale lasted for several more years! Businesses understand that people feel a sense of urgency when there is a limited time. This sermon looks at Luke chapter 13 as we continue our sermon series on the Gospel of Luke. In this chapter we see how Jesus taught a sense of urgency because of the fact that God's kingdom was coming. We have an opportunity now to repent and turn to Jesus for salvation, but this time is limited because the kingdom is coming soon.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Wednesday morning, the 6th of August, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We start off in the Gospel of Luke 14:34-35. Jesus says: “Salt is good; but if the salt has lost its flavour, how shall it be seasoned? It is neither fit for the land nor for the dunghill, but men throw it out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!” When salt has lost it's flavour it's not even any good for fertiliser but to be thrown out on the road and disregarded completely. Then we go to Revelation 3:16: “So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth.” Words of the Lord! Very, very hard words but serious words. We need to be salty. We cannot be indifferent. We cannot sit on the fence. It's a very uncomfortable place to sit, especially if it is a barbed-wire fence. We need to let our “yes” be yes, and we need to make sure and let our “no” be no. You know folks, I want to say something to you. People don't have to like you but they must respect you, and that is so important. We cannot hunt with the hounds one day and run with the hares another day. We have got to be definite. With my Scottish roots, our national food is porridge. Have you ever tried to eat a plate of porridge with no salt? It is tasteless. It is so bland, I won't even eat it. It needs to be salty. The Lord wants you and I today to become salty. We need to know the Bible and when people ask us an opinion, we need to be able to give it to them straight. Do many roads lead to Heaven? You must be able to say, “No, John 14:6 says Jesus is the way. There is no other way.” People might not like it but it is the truth and they will respect you for it. Today, let us become salty so that we can help those who are undecided, those who cannot make up their minds. Let us be those that are black and white, no grey area in our conversation.Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day,Goodbye.

The Gospel of Luke
We think that having many people at your beck and call to serve you is a sure sign of greatness. To have others take care of the menial tasks in your life is an indicator that you have reached the top. But what if that's not really true? What if the real sign of greatness is not how many people serve you, but rather, how many people you serve? The counterintuitive nature of God's ways are once again on display this Sunday in the life and death of Jesus. Reflection Questions:1. How does Jesus redefine greatness, and how is that different from what the world teaches?2. Where in my life am I tempted to seek status or recognition instead of serving like Jesus?3. What would it look like for me to embrace sacrificial service this week, even when it costs me?4. How does the promise of sharing in Jesus' kingdom strengthen my desire to follow his example now?

Redemption E7 — When murmurs about the birth of the Messiah began spreading, 1st-century Jewish people already had very specific expectations of what his redemption would look like. He was to be a new Moses who would overthrow Rome, enabling them to live freely in the land. But even after Jesus' resurrection, none of that had happened. So what kind of redemption did Jesus actually accomplish? In this episode, Jon and Tim explore the theme of redemption in the Gospel of Luke, uncovering ways that Jesus' mission aligned with, subverted, and transcended Israel's expectations.CHAPTERSSetup for Redemption in Luke (00:00-5:39)Redemption at the Beginning and End of Luke (5:39-24:15)The Cosmic Jubilee Has Arrived (24:15-30:53)Cosmic Redemption from Sin, Death, and the Satan (30:53-50:41)OFFICIAL EPISODE TRANSCRIPTView this episode's official transcript.REFERENCED RESOURCESYou can view annotations for this episode—plus our entire library of videos, podcasts, articles, and classes—in the BibleProject app, available for Android and iOS.Check out Tim's extensive collection of recommended books here.SHOW MUSIC“Mist of Blessing ft.
