Gentle and Lowly
Gentle and lowly is how Jesus describes himself. In this series we unpack what this means and look at the beautiful character of Jesus and how we should respond to him. We’ll be looking at what Jesus says about himself in the Bible and dipping into Dane Ortlund’s excellent book “Gentle and Lowly: The Heart of Christ for Sinners and Sufferers."
Revelling in the gentle dealings of Jesus
Martin contrasts the way that our culture often deals harshly with us with the way that Jesus deals with all who come to him. Jesus deals gently with us because he can empathise with our weakness.
Jesus - a high priest who empathises
Marce explores how Jesus, instead of being naively horrified by the temptations we face, has himself faced and defeated those same temptations and is therefore able to empathise with us in our struggle.
Jesus finds joy in our weakness
Joel looks at the amazing and unlikely truth that Jesus, instead of being put off by our weakness loves it when we come to him in weakness.
The great invitation
Marce looks again at Jesus' great invitation to find life in him.
Jesus the lowly king
At the start of a sermon series looking at who Jesus says he is, Marce thinks about what it means for Jesus to be a great king and also humble and lowly.
