Jesus reveals himself as the Messiah, then immediately destroys every false expectation: he will suffer, die, and call his followers to do the same. Glory appears on the mountain, but the message is not comfort—it is listen to him and follow him down the hard road. Again and again, Jesus exposes weak faith, pride, and divided loyalty, showing that discipleship is not admiration from a distance but costly surrender.Then he turns his fire on false religion. The outsider becomes the true neighbour, the listener is praised above the busy performer, prayer is raw dependence, and neutrality toward Jesus is exposed as impossible. By the time he confronts the Pharisees and lawyers, the point is unmistakable: God is not impressed by polished religion that hides greed, pride, and resistance. Jesus is forcing a choice—repent, or be exposed.

Send Us Your Questions/CommentsThe disciples get into a debate that feels painfully modern: who is the greatest. We open Luke 9:46-62 and watch Jesus dismantle the whole scorekeeping mindset with one simple move, he brings a child to his side and ties true greatness to humility. As we talk it through, we keep coming back to motives: would we still serve if nobody noticed, and do we secretly want recognition more than obedience?From there, the conversation shifts to ministry jealousy and church unity. John tries to shut down someone casting out demons because he “does not follow with us,” and Jesus refuses the territorial spirit. We dig into what it looks like to hold tight to essential doctrine while staying open-handed on secondary issues, and we ask the hard questions about denominational loyalty, comparison, and whether we feel threatened when God uses someone else.Then the road to Jerusalem exposes another heart issue: retaliation. When a Samaritan village rejects Jesus, James and John want fire from heaven, but Jesus rebukes them and moves on. We connect that to the online outrage cycle, political heat, and everyday moments where mercy is harder than revenge. Finally, we sit with Jesus' sober call to discipleship: no comfort guarantees, no “let me first,” no looking back once your hand is on the plow.If you want a deeper Bible study on Luke 9, Christian humility, servant leadership, and the cost of following Jesus, listen through and take notes.

Sunday June 7, 2026  Luke 9

Join as Pastor John challenges us from Luke 9

June 7, 2026 | Pastor Adam Muhtaseb continues the Seek and Save series in Luke 9:37-48.

Pastor Kevin teaches from Luke 9 on self-denial and what it costs to follow Jesus off the mountaintop and into ordinary life. The disciples come down from a glorious experience to find struggling people, problems beyond their ability to fix, and arguments about who among them is the greatest. Jesus reframes all of it, using a child to show that true greatness looks nothing like the world expects. Faithfulness is not about spiritual highs but humble, forward-facing surrender to Christ.

Luke and Acts Series Pt 14 Luke 9 (Kirk Delaney) 7 June 2026 by Pine Rivers Vineyard

37 On the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, a great crowd met him. 38 And behold, a man from the crowd cried out, "Teacher, I beg you to look at my son, for he is my only child. 39 And behold, a spirit seizes him, and he suddenly cries out. It convulses him so that he foams at the mouth, and shatters him, and will hardly leave him. 40 And I begged your disciples to cast it out, but they could not." 41 Jesus answered, "O faithless and twisted generation, how long am I to be with you and bear with you? Bring your son here." 42 While he was coming, the demon threw him to the ground and convulsed him. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father. 43 And all were astonished at the majesty of God. Jesus Again Foretells His Death But while they were all marveling at everything he was doing, Jesus[a] said to his disciples, 44 "Let these words sink into your ears: The Son of Man is about to be delivered into the hands of men." 45 But they did not understand this saying, and it was concealed from them, so that they might not perceive it. And they were afraid to ask him about this saying. Who Is the Greatest? 46 An argument arose among them as to which of them was the greatest. 47 But Jesus, knowing the reasoning of their hearts, took a child and put him by his side 48 and said to them, "Whoever receives this child in my name receives me, and whoever receives me receives him who sent me. For he who is least among you all is the one who is great." Anyone Not Against Us Is For Us 49 John answered, "Master, we saw someone casting out demons in your name, and we tried to stop him, because he does not follow with us....

The 12 disciples of Jesus were certainly a mixed bag – hot one day (think Peter saying ‘You are the Christ) and cold the next (think their argument on the road to the cross as to which of them was the greatest!). In Luke 9:46-56 it seems that some pettiness in their minds and hearts […]

Saturday, June 6, 2026

Welcome to the Daily Disciple Podcast. As daily disciples, we seek to adore and follow Jesus, our teacher, into the abundant life that he offers. Because we find Jesus irresistible, fascinating, and incredibly practical, we want to be students of his scripture. Today's episode is found in Luke 9 "Take 'em Out Or Bring 'em In."

Send Us Your Questions/CommentsA split second can change how you see everything, and Luke 9 gives us one of those moments. Jesus goes up a mountain to pray with Peter, James, and John, and while He's praying, His face and clothing blaze with a kind of radiant glory the disciples cannot manufacture or explain. Then Moses and Elijah appear and start talking with Him, not about comfort or success, but about His coming “departure” at Jerusalem. Even in glory, the cross stays central.We take time to read the passage closely and connect the dots Luke expects you to notice: why the Transfiguration comes right after Peter's confession that Jesus is the Christ, why “about eight days” is not a contradiction with the other Gospels, and why the Bible keeps linking mountains, prayer, and revelation. We also dig into the meaning of Moses and Elijah showing up as the Law and the Prophets, and why the word “departure” can carry the weight of “exodus,” pointing to Jesus as the true deliverer from sin.Then comes the line that lands on all of us: the Father speaks from the cloud and says, “This is my Son, my Chosen One; listen to him.” We talk honestly about how easy it is to be half-awake spiritually, how quickly we can chase the mountaintop feeling, and why Luke immediately brings us down the mountain into the crowd where real ministry happens.If you want a deeper, clearer view of Jesus and a more grounded picture of Christian discipleship, press play.

Join as Pastor John challenges us on taking up the cross and following Jesus 

May 31, 2026 | Pastor Adam Muhtaseb continues the Seek and Save series in Luke 9:28-36.

Pastor Gerrit walks through Luke 9:37-48, exploring what it looks like to follow Jesus not just in moments of spiritual highs, but in the ordinary and often messy work of loving people. Three lessons emerge from the story: disciples are called off the mountain and into ministry, real power for that ministry comes through faith and prayer rather than self-reliance, and true greatness in God's kingdom looks like humility and service rather than status. The father who brings his demon-possessed son to Jesus becomes a picture of persistent, honest faith, even when that faith feels shaky.

Now about eight days after these sayings he took with him Peter and John and James and went up on the mountain to pray. 29 And as he was praying, the appearance of his face was altered, and his clothing became dazzling white. 30 And behold, two men were talking with him, Moses and Elijah, 31 who appeared in glory and spoke of his departure,[a] which he was about to accomplish at Jerusalem. 32 Now Peter and those who were with him were heavy with sleep, but when they became fully awake they saw his glory and the two men who stood with him. 33 And as the men were parting from him, Peter said to Jesus, "Master, it is good that we are here. Let us make three tents, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah"—not knowing what he said. 34 As he was saying these things, a cloud came and overshadowed them, and they were afraid as they entered the cloud. 35 And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is my Son, my Chosen One;[b] listen to him!" 36 And when the voice had spoken, Jesus was found alone. And they kept silent and told no one in those days anything of what they had seen.

Feeding of the 5,000

1 Then calling together the twelve apostles, he gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.Convocatis autem duodecim Apostolis, dedit illis virtutem et potestatem super omnia daemonia, et ut languores curarent. 2 And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.Et misit illos praedicare regnum Dei, et sanare infirmos. 3 And he said to them: Take nothing for your journey; neither staff, nor scrip, nor bread, nor money; neither have two coats.Et ait ad illos : Nihil tuleritis in via, neque virgam, neque peram, neque panem, neque pecuniam, neque duas tunicas habeatis. 4 And whatsoever house you shall enter into, abide there, and depart not from thence.Et in quamcumque domum intraveritis, ibi manete, et inde ne exeatis. 5 And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off even the dust of your feet, for a testimony against them.Et quicumque non receperint vos : exeuntes de civitate illa, etiam pulverem pedum vestrorum excutite in testimonium supra illos. 6 And going out, they went about through the towns, preaching the gospel, and healing everywhere.Egressi autem circuibant per castella evangelizantes, et curantes ubique.St Luke, the Evangelist, reminds us that our Lord Jesus Christ conferred on his apostles the power of working miracles and commanded the to preach everywhere the Kingdom of God.

Send Us Your Questions/CommentsJesus asks several questions that sound simple until you try to answer them without hiding behind the crowd: “Who do you say that I am?”, "What did I come to do?", and "How will you live in light of these things?” We open Luke 9:18-27 right after the feeding of the 5,000 and watch Luke tighten the focus from public opinions to personal confession. Plenty of people can name a version of Jesus they admire, but Jesus demands clarity about his identity as God's Messiah, not a character we rewrite for comfort. From there, we sit with the hard core of the gospel story: the Son of Man must suffer, be rejected, be killed, and be raised on the third day. We talk about why the crucifixion and resurrection are not optional add-ons to Christian belief, and why they remain the foundation you return to when doubt, pressure, or circumstances hit. Along the way, we reference C.S. Lewis on the challenge of reducing Jesus to “just” a teacher, and we share an illustration that builds confidence in the reality of the resurrection. Then Jesus “throws down the gauntlet” with discipleship: deny yourself, take up your cross daily, and follow me. We unpack the kingdom paradox of losing your life to save it, the call to real life transformation (Romans 12), and why prayer isn't a side habit but a survival line for a faithful Christian life. If you're tired of casual faith and want a clearer, more grounded picture of who Jesus is and what following him costs, this conversation is for you. Subscribe for more through the Gospel of Luke, share this with someone wrestling with the big questions, and leave a review so more people can find the podcast.

May 24, 2026 | Josh Lashbrook continues the Seek and Save series in Luke 9:18-27.

In Luke 9:27–36, Pastor Kevin walks through the Transfiguration, where Jesus takes Peter, James, and John up a mountain and is revealed in radiant, blinding glory. Moses and Elijah appear alongside him, representing the law and the prophets, and their conversation centers on Jesus' coming death in Jerusalem. The Father's voice from the cloud interrupts Peter's impulse to build three tabernacles with a simple command: this is my beloved Son, hear him.

03 Leviticus 8; 19 Psalms 107; 42 Luke 9

28 Now about eight days after these sayings he took with him Peter and John and James and went up on the mountain to pray. 29 And as he was praying, the appearance of his face was altered, and his clothing became dazzling white. 30 And behold, two men were talking with him, Moses and Elijah, 31 who appeared in glory and spoke of his departure,[b] which he was about to accomplish at Jerusalem. 32 Now Peter and those who were with him were heavy with sleep, but when they became fully awake they saw his glory and the two men who stood with him. 33 And as the men were parting from him, Peter said to Jesus, “Master, it is good that we are here.

Many people want Jesus... until following Him costs something.In Luke 9, Jesus challenges His disciples with one of the hardest truths in Scripture: whoever wants to save their life will lose it. This sermon dives deep into surrender, sacrifice, eternal perspective, and the glory waiting for believers who remain faithful.Learn more about us:https://www.tulsabible.org/Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/tulsabible/TBC - To know God, and make Him known.(Matt. 28. 18-20)

Send Us Your Questions/CommentsJesus sends people out before they feel ready and He does it on purpose. In Luke 9, we watch Him gather the twelve, give them real authority, and then tell them to take almost nothing for the road. That tension is the point: obedience that forces dependence. We talk about what it means to be empowered by the Holy Spirit to share the gospel, live the Great Commission, and trust God when you don't have a perfect plan or the resources you wish you had. Then the story pivots to Herod, a man who hears all the talk about Jesus and gets intrigued, even unsettled, but never actually pursues Him. We dig into that warning for today: curiosity about Christianity isn't the same as surrender to Christ. If you've ever felt spiritually interested but hesitant, Herod's reaction raises a hard question about where fascination ends and faith begins. Finally, we slow down in the feeding of the 5,000, one of the only miracles recorded in all four Gospels. We unpack the disciples' fatigue, the crowd's need, and Jesus' simple command: “You give them something to eat.” From Philip's scarcity math to Andrew bringing the boy's lunch, the story confronts our “spreadsheet faith” and replaces it with prayerful trust. If you need encouragement that God can provide, multiply, and meet real needs, this conversation is for you.
