About this listen

What does it really mean to be filled, led, and empowered by the Holy Spirit?

In this sermon from the season of Epiphany, we step into Jesus’ first public sermon in Luke chapter 4 and listen as he reads from Isaiah in his hometown synagogue. What begins with amazement quickly turns to resistance when Jesus declares that the long awaited promise is being fulfilled that very day through him. The message explores how Jesus was filled with the Holy Spirit, led by the Spirit, and moved in the power of the Spirit, and how that power was never meant to be consumed for personal validation but given away for the sake of others. This sermon challenges our desire for signs and wonders and asks whether we sometimes seek confirmation instead of commission. It invites us to see Holy Spirit activity not only in worship experiences but in outward mission, good news for the poor, freedom for the captive, sight for the blind, and dignity for the oppressed. Ultimately, it calls the church to follow Jesus beyond the familiar and toward the forgotten.
