This is message number three in a sermon series entitled 'Life Changing Encounters', based on Scripture found in Luke 7:1-10.

Here we meet a gentile that had a heart of compassion, a humility that was willing to ask for help. And he also realized the incredible hope that an extraordinary faith could bring. Does your faith in God need a little infusion of strength today?

In this message we meet a man who had compromised loyalties; he loved his treasure and tried to love Jesus too! He found out a relationship with the living God took more than just obedience. The Lord demanded his whole heart and his full devotion. With that being said, is Jesus your life or just a convenient add on? He deserves complete control of our hearts.
