"Sabbath Rest and True Humility"

Aug 31, 2025 • Alex Cain

In this sermon from Luke 14:1–14, Alex Cain explores Jesus’ healing on the Sabbath and His teaching about humility at the banquet table. Drawing from Scripture, cultural context, and modern parallels, Alex shows that the Sabbath is not about rules or status—but about restoration, flourishing, and rest in God. He challenges us to step off the treadmill of pride and status-seeking, and instead embrace humility, welcome the vulnerable, and find true rest in Christ’s Kingdom.

Scripture Reference: Luke 14:1–14

Key Themes: Sabbath Rest, Humility, Pride, Hospitality, Kingdom of God
