Sermon Notes

Many of us are naturally curious about the type of people who will be welcomed by God, and many of us probably have our own assumptions regarding who might be “in” and who might be “out.” The people in the first century weren’t any different. They, like us, drew circles of inclusion and exclusion, but what we will see this week is that Jesus completely turned their assumptions on their heads. To the surprise of everyone, Jesus included even the most unlikely of characters into His Kingdom.
