Reach Out
We are called to seek and save the lost.
What was your best experience in a large crowd?
What was your worst experience in a large crowd?
Read: Luke 19:1-3
How does Luke describe Zaccheaus? What would his equivalent be in today’s age?
When is sometime in our life when we judged someone because of their appearance or physical issue?
How do you think it would have felt to be Zaccheaus?
Read: Luke 19:4-7
Would you have been a resourceful as Zaccheaus? Why?
What did Jesus see in Zaccheaus?
Why do you think Zaccheaus responded to Jesus’ call to stay at his house that day?
Would you, if you were carrying everything Zaccheaus was, be able to make the same response? Why or why not?
Read: Luke 19:8-10
What do you think the crowd’s reaction was to everything Zaccheaus said? Where they happy? Were they sad? Were they angry? Why?
Wally challenged us at the end of his message that we are one of three people in the story—Zaccheaus, the crowd, or Jesus—seeking and saving the lost. What do you need to do to move towards Jesus?
Pray: Pray for opportunities, and for boldness to see those who have climbed up in trees today who need to know that Jesus loves them. Take the next step and reach out!
