The Good News

Today Jesus announces the “Good News” to his home congregation. We’ve heard that same good news. Good news should make us joyful – but does it? When times are tough? When we are hurting? Yes, it will - if we understand and experience what the good news really is. “This text is being fulfilled today even while you are listening”. The good news is Jesus himself. He lives in us. He is with us always, in good times and in bad.
