About this episode

Pastor Jake discusses the purpose of life in relation to Jesus's mission to seek and save the lost, using the story of Zacchaeus.

What is the purpose of your life? Does your life revolve around your own comfort or around the mission of Jesus? In Pastor Jake's final sermon at Hill City Downtown, we look at the story of Zacchaeus and the powerful truth that defined Jesus’s mission: “For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost” (Luke 19:10). He didn’t come to make us comfortable. He came to reach the lost. And if you follow Him, He calls you to join Him on that mission. This message is both personal and missional, sharing the heart behind launching Hill City East and the calling to leave comfort for something greater… for the one. Who is your one? Title: Seek & Save Text: Luke 19:1–10 Speaker: Jake Wright
