Luke sermon series and Bible studies
 

St. John's is a Bible-based church and frequently the entire church engages in studying the same book of the Bible together. That means the children's Sunday School, various youth programs, and adult Bible studies are synchronized with the Sunday sermon series. This fall, in our sermon series, Sunday school and many Bible study groups we are studying the Gospel of Luke.

The Bible Speaks Today: The Message of Luke
Michael Wilcock

Luke the Physician was fascinated by people. In his Gospel he portrays Jesus as the Saviour not of an elite group but of any one, in any condition, who turns to Him. Jesus is indeed the Saviour of the world.
