The Road to Emmaus as a blueprint for the Christian life (Luke 24:13–35)
This Sunday we’re continuing our journey with a message called “Emmaus— Our Journey of Faith.” If you’ve been tracking with this series, you already know the purpose: helping our church become more welcoming—to outsiders, and to Jesus.
Luke tells us that on resurrection Sunday, the very first thing Jesus does is quietly walk with two disciples on the road to Emmaus—two people the world would overlook. And that’s not an accident. It’s a picture of what life with the risen Christ looks like after the resurrection… and honestly, it looks a lot like church.
Jesus walks with them, listens to them, opens the Scriptures, and breaks bread with them. That’s the posture of Emmanuel—God with us—still drawing near, still teaching, still feeding, still turning downcast hearts into burning hearts.
So here’s the challenge we’ll sit with: Do we offer that kind of discipleship? Are we creating space for intentional listening? A fuller picture of Jesus? A table that feels like home?
Come ready to be encouraged—and nudged forward. It’s good to be on the road with Jesus.
