We are often confronted in the synoptic gospels with the three “C”: The Crowd, the critics and the committed. A crowd is an interesting phenomenon because within it one can find the critics and committed (along with the confused, I guess). In these chapters (beginning at ch13:22) we see Jesus heading towards Jerusalem and with his date-for-death (in our place as our substitute). But before he does, He will take us through some narrow doors, He will serve God’s gracious invitation to be at the heavenly banquet, and He will challenge those who think that are “in” with God simply because of their heritage (John 1:12+13). We trust these sermons will be a blessing to you as they were for us in preparing and delivering them.

I greatly look forward to seeing you as we uncover this important message over the coming weeks.

Be Blessed,
Pastor Ian Wooley.
