Living the Revolution – NQ Megasurge

Following Jesus is radical. Jesus died. Jesus rose again. And those that follow Jesus are to be radically changed by that good news… it will start a REVOLUTION in your life.

Living the Revolution

This series looks at Luke’s biography of Jesus and ask the questions: What makes Jesus so radical? What does it means to live the revolution? Are you living it?

  2. Radical King (Luke 23:32-43)
  3. Radical Discipleship (Luke 9:18-27)
  4. Radical Change (19:1-10)
  5. Radical Priorities (16:1-15)
