Luke 7:18-35

All of us have expectations about Jesus. But what do we do when God doesn't act according to our expectations and things turn out differently than we had hoped? Do we continue trusting Him, or do we begin to question His ways? This passage will challenge us to examine whether our faith is grounded in God's Word and character or in our own expectations of what He should do.

How many times in your life are you anticipating one thing when something entirely different proves to be the case. You have unmet expectations. How do we move forward when these unmet expectations surround the person of Jesus Christ?

Luke 7:18-35

What should you do with your faith doubts? Our text shows us that even the greatest heroes of the faith have their moments of doubt and that the best thing we can do is bring those doubts to Jesus like John the Baptist rather than pridefully question Jesus in a self-justifying way like the religious leaders of that day.

Luke 7:11-17

In Luke 7:11–17, Jesus encounters a grieving widow whose world has been shattered by the death of her only son. Moved by compassion, Jesus does the unthinkable: He raises her son from the dead, demonstrating both His tender heart and His divine authority over death itself. This remarkable miracle reminds us that Jesus has both the compassion to care and the power to save. As we encounter the compassionate and powerful Saviour, we are invited to receive His compassion, reflect it to others, and trust Him with both our lives and our eternity.

Luke7:11-17

Effective Christian witness is telling the story of Jesus’ life by living, in true Christian community, what He lived and valuing what He valued – a life of love, kindness, and compassion. As we communicate God’s heart to the world, interested crowds will become committed disciples, incarnating the same love and compassion that Jesus, God Incarnate, has.

Luke 7.11-17

When Jesus raises the only son of a widow back to life, He does so with compassion and power. This sermon contends that Jesus being both compassionate and powerful makes all the difference in the world and makes Him the Saviour you want and need.

Luke 7:1-10

A Roman centurion grasps a profound spiritual reality when he asked Jesus to heal his servant: Just as soldiers obey his commands instantly, so Christ’s word alone accomplishes healing without physical presence. His combination of faith and humility, marked by a confession of unworthiness, demonstrates the very worthiness that saves, and reveals his understanding that salvation’s foundation rests not on external worthiness but on recognizing Christ’s absolute authority.
