Who Is My Family?

Who belongs at the table of Jesus? Pastor Brent explores one of the most radical truths of the Gospel: Jesus continually makes room for people others tried to push away. From the calling of Matthew the tax collector to the healing of a woman who had spent twelve years on the outside, we discover that God's family is not built on perfection, performance, or having all the right answers. It is built on grace. Together we'll wrestle with the fear of not belonging, examine Jesus' habit of widening the circle, and explore why belonging often comes before transformation. If you've ever wondered whether there's a place for someone like you in the Church—or in the heart of God—this message is for you. At The Church on the Path, we believe that Jesus came to create a family transformed by grace, where all are welcomed, all can belong, and all are invited to grow in the love of Christ. Scripture: Matthew 9:9–13, 18–26
