Podcasts about Luke 14

Monday of the Thirty-first Week in Ordinary TimeLuke 14:12-14"Rather, when you hold a banquet,invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind;blessed indeed will you be because of their inability to repay you.For you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous."

In week two of Making Room for More, we explore Jesus' story of a feast that no one showed up to—and a host who kept inviting anyway. In Luke 14, we see that the kingdom of God isn't a lecture hall or a stadium, but a table where grace keeps making room for one more. This message invites us to trade convenience for connection and discover how our own tables can become places where heaven touches earth.To support this ministry and help us continue our God given mission, click here: http://bit.ly/2NZkdrC.Support the show

On a sabbath Jesus went to dineat the home of one of the leading Pharisees,and the people there were observing him carefully.In front of him there was a man suffering from dropsy.Jesus spoke to the scholars of the law and Pharisees in reply, asking,"Is it lawful to cure on the sabbath or not?"But they kept silent; so he took the man and,after he had healed him, dismissed him.Then he said to them"Who among you, if your son or ox falls into a cistern,would not immediately pull him out on the sabbath day?"But they were unable to answer his question.

Sermon: Luke 14By Sister Maria Luisa Piraquive, worldwide leader of the ChurchLocation: Weston, Florida, United StatesStreamed on October 26, 2025Church of God Ministry of Jesus Christ Internationalhttps://idmji.org/en#IDMJI #CGMJCI #MariaLuisaPiraquive #Piraquive

In Luke 14:34–35, Jesus says, “Salt is good, but if salt loses its taste, how can its saltiness be restored?” It's a short passage, but it packs a punch. Salt in Jesus' day had two main purposes—to season and to preserve—and that's exactly what our faith should do. We should make life better, like seasoning that brings out flavor, and we should help preserve what's good and holy in the world. Our families, workplaces, and communities ought to be brighter and kinder because we're there. And just like salt keeps things from decaying, we're called to hold on to what's good—kindness, honesty, forgiveness, grace. Jesus' warning reminds us to stay “salty,” to keep our edge, our joy, and our witness alive. So today, bring out the best wherever you go, preserve what's good, and let your life reflect the goodness of Christ. Stay salty, friends.Shameless plug: here's a link to Method(ist) to the Madness, our new, hopefully entertaining podcast about church history. - https://methodisttothemadness.buzzsprout.com/Join us for our daily reflections with Andy.

In Luke 14:25–33, Jesus reminds us that following Him isn't something we do halfway — it's a full commitment. He says we must “hate” our family and even our own lives, not because He wants us to literally hate anyone, but because He's calling us to love Him more than anything else. Being His disciple means putting Him first — above comfort, plans, and even relationships. When Jesus says to “carry your cross,” He's talking about dying to ourselves — letting go of pride, control, and selfish desires so we can truly live in Him. He gives two examples — a builder and a king — both of whom count the cost before starting something big. In the same way, we're called to count the cost of discipleship. It's not easy, but it's worth it. Because when we surrender everything to Jesus, we don't lose our lives — we finally find them.Shameless plug: here's a link to Method(ist) to the Madness, our new, hopefully entertaining podcast about church history. - https://methodisttothemadness.buzzsprout.com/Join us for our daily reflections with Andy.

2025 It Is Written Bible Conference at Ozark Gospel Church - Sunday night - Bro. Jim Collins from the Anchor Baptist Church preaching a sermon titled "The Divine Dinner" - Luke 14:16-24 -10/19/2025

In Luke 14:15–24, Jesus tells a story about a great banquet where everyone's invited, but most of the original guests make excuses and don't show up. So the host opens the doors wide, welcoming the poor, the crippled, the blind, and the lame — anyone willing to come. It's a powerful picture of God's grace: His invitation is open to all, but we have to accept it. The danger isn't that God stops calling — it's that we stop listening. Like the faint beep of a smoke alarm we've tuned out, we can get so used to hearing God's voice that we no longer notice it. Today's a reminder to pay attention — to say yes to the Father's invitation, to make space for His grace, and to come to the table where we belong.Shameless plug: here's a link to Method(ist) to the Madness, our new, hopefully entertaining podcast about church history. - https://methodisttothemadness.buzzsprout.com/Join us for our daily reflections with Andy.

This morning in Luke 14:7–14, Jesus uses a dinner party to teach us a powerful lesson about humility and the dangers of power. He notices how guests scramble for the best seats and reminds them that those who exalt themselves will be humbled, but those who humble themselves will be exalted. Then He turns to the host and says not to invite people who can repay the favor, but to invite those who can't—the poor, the crippled, the blind—because that's what real generosity looks like. Jesus is showing us that God's Kingdom isn't about status, influence, or power—it's about humility, service, and grace. Power can corrupt us if we chase it, but humility draws us closer to Christ. So today, let's choose the lowly seat, give without expecting anything in return, and trust that in God's time, He'll lift us up in the way that truly matters.Shameless plug: here's a link to Method(ist) to the Madness, our new, hopefully entertaining podcast about church history. - https://methodisttothemadness.buzzsprout.com/Join us for our daily reflections with Andy.

In Luke 14; 1-6, Jesus heals a man on the Sabbath while dining at a Pharisee's house, knowing full well they're watching to see if He'll “break” the law. But Jesus exposes their hypocrisy by asking if they wouldn't rescue their own child or ox that fell into a well on the Sabbath. Of course they would. He reminds them—and us—that the heart of the law is mercy, not rigid rule-keeping. The Pharisees had become so focused on legalism that they missed God's compassion. Jesus didn't come to destroy the law but to fulfill it, showing that true obedience flows from love, not pride. It's easy for us, too, to slip into thinking holiness is about getting everything right. But the imperfect life that clings to grace is closer to God than the perfect life convinced of its own righteousness. So today, let's lean on grace, love others well, and remember that God desires hearts of mercy more than mere rule-following.Shameless plug: here's a link to Method(ist) to the Madness, our new, hopefully entertaining podcast about church history. - https://methodisttothemadness.buzzsprout.com/Join us for our daily reflections with Andy.

Every person receives an invitation to the Kingdom, but not everyone responds. In Luke 14, Jesus tells the Parable of the Great Banquet, a powerful picture of God's invitation to salvation. In this message, we're reminded that we may ignore the invitation, but we will not ignore the consequences of doing so.    Thank you for listening to the Truth for Today Podcast!

In this message from Luke 14, Pastor Landon reminds us Jesus isn't recruiting fans—He's calling disciples who will give Him unrivaled allegiance, count the cost, and carry the cross in public. In Luke 14:25–35, Pastor Landon Churchill unpacks three hard but hopeful calls from Jesus: (1) Unrivaled Allegiance—to love Christ so supremely that every other love is “less by comparison,” even our own lives; (2) Sober Calculation—like a builder and a king, disciples thoughtfully plan to finish well and honestly face resistance; and (3) Unmistakable Distinctiveness—we are the salt of the earth; refusing Jesus' terms leaks our flavor, embracing them preserves and seasons a bland world. Along the way we're urged to a five-heart check (allegiance, identity, calculation, resistance, flavor) and reminded that the One who demands everything first gave everything. The cost is real—but so are the Spirit's presence, joy in suffering, and eternal reward.

Program for 10/13/25 SAS Chapel: Luke 14:25-35

Current Sermon Series The Politics of Jesus: Following Christ Beyond Left and Right September 7 – October 12 In our polarized world, Christians often feel pressured to choose between political tribes. But Jesus offers a third way that transcends partisan divisions. This series explores how Christ's kingdom values challenge both conservative and progressive assumptions, calling us to a higher allegiance. We'll examine how Jesus' cross dismantles systems of domination, how his economics challenge both capitalism and socialism, and how his community of disciples embodies a new social order. Rather than baptizing political ideologies, we'll explore how the gospel can shape our civic engagement, finding unity in Christ while navigating complex social issues with wisdom, grace, and prophetic imagination and courage.

On a sabbath Jesus went to dineat the home of one of the leading Pharisees.He said to the host who invited him,"When you hold a lunch or a dinner,do not invite your friends or your brothers or sistersor your relatives or your wealthy neighbors,in case they may invite you back and you have repayment.Rather, when you hold a banquet,invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind;blessed indeed will you be because of their inability to repay you.For you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous."

We will journey through some of the most powerful short stories ever told–stories that have shaped Christian faith for centuries. These are not just simple moral lessons. These are Kingdom revelations. With simple images– a tree, a lost coin, a house being built– Jesus opens our eyes to the beauty of God's heart, our need for salvation, and what it means to live in His Kingdom under His reign.The parables are how Jesus invites us in. They are windows into the heart of God and mirrors revealing our own. They confront us, comfort us, and ultimately call us to respond to the good news that God's Kingdom has drawn near in Jesus.This week, Pastor Jake Slebodnik teaches out of Luke 14:25-33.WEBSITETo learn more about Redemption Tempe, find ways to get involved,  or opportunities to serve, visit our website: https://tempe.redemptionaz.com.OUR APPDownload our app redtem.in/tempeappOR text "tempe app" to 77977STAY CONNECTEDFacebook:    / redemptiontempe.  .Twitter:    / redemptiontem  Instagram:    / redemptiontempe..  .GIVINGEverything we have is a gift from the Lord because He owns it all.

Honor, Hospitality, and Heaven: Luke 14:1-24 (Nate Edmondson) by Highlands Community Church

What does it mean to be a disciple of Jesus? What is the cost? In this passage we'll see what it looks like to really follow Jesus and where we find the strength to do it. This message was preached by Pastor Erick Cobb on September 28, 2025.

Pastor Mac provides an expositional style teaching on Luke CH 14:25-30 that will examine some pointed words given by the Savior in regards to the cost associated with being His disciples.  This teaching will expound on these verses and attempt to remove potential misconceptions for Church age believers, while detailing several challenges that we must consider with following the Lord, in the hopes to energize our desire to fully commit to Christ. Social MediaMobile & TV Apps: https://subsplash.com/calvarychapelkaneohe/appProphecy Website: http://jdfarag.orgChurch Website: http://www.calvarychapelkaneohe.comTwitter: https://twitter.com/JDFaragFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/JDFaragInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/JDFarag

In Luke 14, Jesus gives us a parable full of paradoxes. In the parable, many are invited to a banquet, but only the outcasts and marginalized show up. The paradoxes are that God's greatest blessings can also become our greatest barriers, the gospel is both radically exclusive and radically inclusive, and to dine with Jesus is also to die with Jesus. To become good hearers of this parable and receptive to its gospel truth, we too must wrestle with these paradoxes that remind us God's invitation to His Kingdom is urgent, costly, and worth everything.

This is the third and last time Jesus dines with the Pharisees. He confronts them during the dinner and points them to the greater kingdom feast to come. We'll see that, knowing we have a seat at the table then, frees us to be humble guests and generous hosts now. This message was preached by Pastor Erick Cobb on September 14, 2025.

Today’s Bible Verse:“If anyone comes to me and does not hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, even their own life—such a person cannot be my disciple." - Luke 14:26 At first glance, Luke 14:26 can feel shocking and even confusing. Why would Jesus use such strong language about family and even our own lives? In this passage, Jesus is teaching that following Him requires absolute devotion—a love for Him so great that every other loyalty pales in comparison. “Want to listen without ads?
