Whether you are a lifelong member or a newcomer, when you come through the doors of Good Shepherd Church our prayer is that you are made to feel like family. As forgiven people, living in the grace of God, we want more and more people to experience the joy and freedom that can only be found in Jesus Christ. We hope to see you this Sunday!
In Luke 7:11-17, Jesus encounters a large group of mourners for the only son of a widow. When Jesus sees this great tragic parade, he has compassion for the widow. Moved, he raises the dead son to life and restores him to his mother. This week will consider what it means when the Lord sees us, and how his compassion means he is trustworthy.
As we continue our season of Grace Abounds, we will see God’s grace revealed in an unlikely place. Jesus is met by representatives of a Gentile Centurion who is concerned about his dear servant, requesting that Jesus bring healing and restoration. Jesus does answer this request, but in one of the most unique ways we find in the Gospels. Perhaps even more surprising, Jesus holds up this Gentile Centurion’s great faith for us to observe. But what makes the faith of the centurion so great? Join us as we discover why.
This week, as we celebrate Holy Trinity Sunday, we dive into John, chapter 8, where Jesus is in a serious argument with some Jewish leaders. Despite Jesus' authoritative teaching and his incredible miracles, they still question who Jesus claims to be. However, after a brief discussion about Abraham, Jesus "drops the mic" and makes his identity perfectly clear. Join us this Sunday as we look at two of the great imponderables - the Trinity and the Incarnation.
