Part 5-11 James - Radical Transformation
Luke 9:51-56
Ps Denis Lu
Luke 9:51-56 explores the journey of James, son of Zebedee, from a fiery, judgmental disciple who wanted to call down fire on the Samaritans, to a humble apostle transformed by Jesus' love and grace. Discover how James' encounter with Jesus, reshaped his zealous heart into compassion and purpose.
About this series
Jesus had many disciples. Large crowds followed Him, and He also had committed groups of men and women, including women who supported His ministry (Luke 8:3) and the 72 whom He sent out in pairs (Luke 10:1). However, the most famous and intimate group of disciples was the Twelve, whom Jesus chose after a night of prayer (Luke 6:12-13). These Twelve travelled and ministered with Jesus, were eyewitnesses to His ministry, and were commissioned as apostles (Luke 6:13).
In this series, we will examine how Jesus discipled the Twelve and how they responded to Him.
Through their lives, let us open our hearts to respond to God's call upon our lives to be His disciples.
