Luke’s Gospel:
This year is the Year of Luke’s Gospel. Luke’s Gospel is not an eyewitness to the life and ministry of Jesus but is
endeavouring to provide an orderly account on the basis of reliable eyewitness accounts handed down to the community by‘servants’ or ministers of the word. This gospel is carefully researched and addressed to a person of influence called Theophilus. Luke’s gospel is about the release that comes from the
gracious and expansive love of God mediated through God’s anointed and Spirit
filled prophet. Every significant event in Luke is powered by the Spirit of God.
