224: 12-04-2026 Luke (Part 18) Jesus early morning retreat

About this episode

A sermon exploring Jesus' early-morning withdrawal and its relevance to modern life.

A sermon on Luke 4:38–44 exploring Jesus’ early-morning withdrawal after a day of intense ministry, showing how he stepped away from the crowd, sought the face of the Father, and stayed on the path of his calling. Drawing on related texts such as Mark 1:35–39, Luke 5:16, and John 15:4–5, the message reflects on how Jesus’ pattern of solitude, prayer, and focus speaks into our own distracted and pressure-filled lives. Luke 4:38–44
