  • The Gospel of Luke Part 2
    Mar 26 2026
    In this episode of Purposely Equipped: The Four Gospels, Pastor Gwen Dreger helps us step into the later chapters of Luke with the curiosity of a physician and the tenderness of a storyteller, reminding us why Luke’s Gospel speaks so personally to everyday people. Through parables of lost things, lavish grace, and patient redemption, we’re invited to see ourselves in the stories Jesus told—and to recognize His love in the moments we wander and the moments we return.

    As we move from the prodigal’s embrace to the risen Christ on the road to Emmaus, we’re encouraged to open our eyes to His presence and lean into a deeper, life‑shaping relationship with Him.
