Sometimes the people who most want to see Jesus are the ones we’re most likely to miss.
In the story of Zaccheus, Jesus does something simple—but powerful: in a sea of faces, He notices one person up in a tree, desperate for a glimpse… and ready for the Kingdom. Zaccheus’ urgency was met by Jesus’ attentiveness.
This Sunday we’re leaning into a challenge for every church and every leader:
Are there people “up in trees” all around us—quietly searching, watching, hoping—while we’re looking in the wrong places?
We’ll talk about:
-
How to notice the overlooked and the “unexpected”
-
Who in our church might be waiting for an invitation to study the Bible or take the next step
-
How mentoring, hospitality, and simple initiative can unlock new leaders and new fruit
We’ll also take time to ponder and pray intentionally—for our service, our kids and youth, our volunteers, and the people who may be near Jesus… but stuck in the crowd.
Join us this Sunday for “Never Lost in the Crowd.”
Come expectant. Come ready to see people the way Jesus does.
