New Life Downtown

We look at the last 'Table story' in Luke's gospel, the meal with the disciples on the road to Emmaus. Pastor Glenn Packiam shows how Jesus focuses on a few and takes his time with time, letting them give voice to their pain. This is a model for our engagement in the city, partnering with a few ministries for long-term impact. Yet, we are more often like the disappointed disciples given an opportunity to welcome in a Stranger. Maybe it's in showing the hospitality of Jesus to another that our own eyes are opened to see Christ anew.
