Meals with Jesus
The meals Jesus eats with different people play a vital role in the unfolding story of Luke's Gospel.
They're important because of who he eats with - often the social misfits, the outcasts, and the religiously unacceptable members of society. And they're important because of what they represent - the future great feast in God's kingdom.
This new course from Focus explores the meals people have with Jesus in Luke's Gospel, and what they mean for us today.
This course is for home groups, cell groups, adult Sunday schools, Christian Unions, youth groups and individuals.
