Message: “Whatever It Takes… to Possess Jesus” from J.D. Greear

In this week’s message from the Gospel of Luke, Pastor J.D. leads us through what is likely a familiar story for many—the story of a tax collector named Zacchaeus whose life was forever changed by a glimpse of Jesus.

Is your life characterized by generosity and a desire to live honorably before God and others? If not, maybe you simply need to start by taking your first real glimpse of Jesus.
