1. Bible Text – Luke 8:4–15 4 While a large crowd was gathering and people were coming to Jesus from town after town, he told this parable:5 “A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path; it was trampled on, and the birds ate it up.6 Some fell on rocky ground, and when it came up, the plants withered because they had no moisture.7 Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up with it and choked the plants.8 Still other seed fell on good soil. It came up and yielded a crop, a hundred times more than was sown.” When…

Jesus Anointed by a Sinful Woman 36 When one of the Pharisees invited Jesus to have dinner with him, he went to the Pharisee’s house and reclined at the table.37 A woman in that town who had lived a sinful life learned that Jesus was eating at the Pharisee’s house, so she came with an alabaster jar of perfume.38 Standing behind him at his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears.

Messengers from John the Baptist (Luke 7:18–35, ESV) 18 The disciples of John reported all these things to him.19 Calling two of his disciples to him, John sent them to the Lord, saying, “Are you the one who is to come, or shall we look for another?”20 And when the men had come to Him, they said, “John the Baptist has sent us to You, saying, ‘Are You the one who is to come, or shall we look for another?’”21 In that hour He healed many people of diseases, plagues, and evil spirits, and on many who were blind He bestowed sight.22 And He answered them, “Go and tell John…

37 Do not judge, and you will not be judged; do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. 38 Give, and others will give to you. A generous measure, pressed and shaken down, and running over, will they pour into your lap; for the standard you use will be the standard used for you.” 39 Then, speaking in parables, Jesus said, “Can one blind person guide another? Will they not both fall into a ditch? 40 A student is not above their teacher; yet every finished student will be like their teacher. 41 And why do you look at the speck of sawdust…

Love Your Enemies27 “But I say to you who hear, love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,28 bless those who curse you, pray for those who abuse you.29 To one who strikes you on the cheek, offer the other also, and from one who takes away your cloak do not withhold your tunic either.30 Give to everyone who begs from you, and from one who takes away your goods do not demand them back.31 And as you wish that others would do to you, do so to them.32 “If you love those who love you, what benefit is that to you? For even sinners love those who…
