Wicked Tenants: Luke 20:9-18

We all like to believe we're in control of our lives: our careers, our relationships, our future. But Jesus tells a story in Luke 20 that exposes a deeper problem: we've mistaken ourselves for the Owner when we've always been tenants.In this message, we explore the Parable of the Wicked Tenants and discover how the desire for control quietly shapes our decisions, fuels anxiety, and keeps us from trusting God's sovereignty. If you've ever struggled with uncertainty, disappointment, or the need to have everything figured out, this message is for you.Learn more about us:https://www.tulsabible.org/Instagram: / tulsabible TBC - To know God, and make Him known.(Matt. 28. 18-20)

Pharisee & Tax Collector: Luke 18.9-14

In Luke 18, Jesus shows us two very different approaches to God. One person trusted in his own goodness, while the other came with humility and a desperate need for mercy. This sermon explores the difference between pride and humility, and how an honest heart before God leads to transformation.

Parable of the Lost Sons - Luke 15.11-32

The younger son wasted everything. The older son did everything right. So why did Jesus say they were both lost?In this message, we look deeper into the Parable of the Lost Sons and discover how Jesus challenges both the rebellious heart and the self-righteous heart.The gospel is not about becoming good enough for God, it’s about receiving the grace of a Father who comes looking for His lost children.

Parable of Great Banquet: Luke 14.15-24

What if the thing you're pursuing most is the very thing keeping you from true satisfaction? Near the end of his life, Johnny Cash recorded a song that reflected on success, regret, and the emptiness that can come from chasing everything the world promises. Thousands of years earlier, Jesus told a story with the exact same warning. In Luke 14, Jesus describes a great banquet prepared by a generous host. The invitation is free. Everything is ready. Yet one by one, people turn it down because they have something "more important" to do. A new purchase. A growing career. A relationship. A busy life. The shocking truth of this parable is that the greatest danger isn't always bad things, it's good things that slowly take God's place in our hearts. If you've ever achieved something you thought would make you happy, only to find yourself wanting more, this message is for you.

Good Samaritan: Luke 10.25-37

Most people know the story of the Good Samaritan. Few understand why Jesus actually told it. When a religious expert asked Jesus how to inherit eternal life, Jesus responded with one of the most famous parables ever told. But this story is about far more than kindness, morality, or being a good neighbor. In this message, we explore: • Why Jesus used parables to reveal the Kingdom of God • The dangerous desire to justify ourselves before God • What the Good Samaritan teaches about true compassion • Why we cannot save ourselves • How Jesus is the Savior who came to rescue us when we could not rescue ourselves The Good Samaritan is not ultimately a story about becoming a better person. It is a story that points us to the mercy, grace, and compassion of Christ.
