The Wee Little Man
Luke 19: 1-10
This sermon is based on Jesus' encounter with Zacchaeus in the ancient town of Jericho. Dr. Bell stresses two themes: first, Jesus' main mission was to seek and to save people, such as Zacchaeus, a true sinner; he makes a second point about the nature of repentance, because Zacchaeus is a model of repentance, desiring not only inner transformation but also reconciliation with those he cheated and wronged. During the season of Lent, this sermon challenges Christians to examine what difference it makes to be loved by Jesus.
