Proper 18
Luke 14.25-33Proclaim afresh - Week 1 of 4
Four weeks in which we find the ancient message of the Scriptures proclaimed afresh in Luke’s Gospel and made relevant for our life today.
Shocking
Today’s reading is about the cost of discipleship. Jesus opens with a shocking statement and moves on to commend the need for calculated planning.
This week's reading, Luke 14.25-33, provides an opportunity to:
- recognise that we are returning to Luke’s Gospel
- acknowledge Luke’s reference to the Jewish Scriptures
- acknowledge the impact of shock and surprise
- consider how we determine priorities when we are making plans
These resources were first published in 2013.
