Bridging the Distance  Click here Click title to view sermon Reading: Luke 17: 11–19
Summary: The 10 lepers were separated from society not only physically, but emotionally and socially as well. Jesus bridged all those distances, making the lepers well and giving them the opportunity to acknowledge the power of God. Unfortunately, only one of those healed recognized how close God had come to him. We too, live in the presence of a God who is at once both far beyond us and nearer than our own skin. Because of that, we have unprecedented access to God through Jesus Christ.

When Your Faith Makes You Well  Click here Click title to view sermon Reading: Luke 17: 11–19
Summary: While the obvious (and oft-repeated) lesson from Jesus’ encounter with the 10 lepers centers on giving thanks, there is more to this than the obvious. In the context of the disciple’s request, “Lord, increase our faith” (Luke 17:5), Jesus not only answers about “mustard-seed faith” but he also dramatically illustrates faith when he heals the lepers. One, a Samaritan, returns to thank Jesus, and Jesus declares, “Your faith has made you well.” We too can respond in faith when Jesus says “Go ...”
