Series: At the Table with Jesus
Woe to You Leaders
March 30, 2025 | Lynette Sanchez
As the conflict between Jesus and the religious leaders heats up, Jesus uses a meal at a Pharisee's house to call out the hypocrisy and corruption of those called to lead the people to God. Though it's tempting to point a finger at others, these six woes are an invitation for self-examination and confession that we may live wholeheartedly in following Jesus.

Series Information
Luke 7:34 says, “The Son of Man came eating and drinking.” Indeed, a major feature of Luke’s Gospel is that Jesus is usually going to a meal, at a meal, or coming from a meal. If you love to eat, Luke is your Gospel. But wait a minute. The meals of Jesus represent something bigger. They represent a new world, a new kingdom, a new outlook. But they also give that new reality substance. Jesus’s meals are not just symbols; they’re application. They’re not just pictures; they’re the real thing in miniature. They’re social occasions. They represent friendship, community, and welcome. In them Jesus shows us how to live, how to teach, and how to respond.
