Jesus set His sights on Jerusalem because He is preparing for His death (and resurrection).  As He travels He planned to enter a Samaritan village, but because His sights were sent on Jerusalem, the people do not receive Him. We heard in the Gospel last week that some people did not receive Jesus after He drove out a legion of demons from a man.  Jesus is rejected many times during His ministry on earth, but He still dies for those who reject Him.  How do you feel when you tell people about Jesus and they do not receive Him or His Word? 

Message 06/29/2025 - Jesus Rejected By Samaritans - Text: Luke 9:51-62

As we celebrate the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the disciples who then spoke in other languages the Good News of Jesus, we remember that we are here because of the Holy Spirit at work in our own life and because of that first Pentecost.
