🌊 Luke 13

Luke 13 is a real chapter from the New Testament. It starts, “Now there were some present at the same time who told him about the Galileans, whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.” That is not a motto invented for a poster. It is the first sentence a family hears when this page is opened at night.

Keep going a little further. The chapter also says, “He said, “What is God’s Kingdom like? To what shall I compare it?” Luke 13 opens with these words: “Now there were some present at the same time who told him about the Galileans, whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.” The line to keep is Luke 13:23: “One said to him, “Lord, are they few who are saved?” He said to them,” Carry the word “saved” from that verse into the rest of the day.

The line worth learning out loud is Luke 13:23: “One said to him, “Lord, are they few who are saved?” He said to them,” If the rest of the chapter feels crowded, hold that one sentence until the room is quiet.

What happens first in Luke 13? Then try this: Read “One said to him, “Lord, are they few who are saved?” He said to them,” once more. What does it show you about God? You do not have to finish every verse. You can close the book after the memory verse and still have read the Bible together.
