Lunch with Levi

Sermon Series: Lessons in Luke

Sunday 9th February 2025

Text: Luke 5: 27-31

Levi – a tax collector, an outsider, and a collaborator with the occupying Romans – was an unusual pick for part of Jeus’s discipleship team. But Jesus wanted to reach out to the marginalised and excluded and invite them in. This is a major message of this passage – Jesus has come as a physician to tend to sick souls! God sees us in all our need and all of our potential for transformation. The question is, do we see this call on our lives coming to us from God?

Come!
Come praise the eternal God!
Let all that is within us--
body, emotions, mind, and will--
praise God’s holy name!
Despite our failures, He forgives and releases us.
More than any doctor, He treats our deepest need.
When we are famished and weak,
He fills us with good and beautiful things,
satisfying our needs, and restoring our strength.
So come!
Come, praise the eternal God!
Sing songs from a grateful heart,
and remember all that He has done for us.
