Inauguration Day
- Luke 4:18-21
- Jeff Coleman
Inauguration Day speeches are powerful. They set the tone for a leader’s agenda. When Jesus speaks in his hometown synagogue, he challenges expectations with a vision of God’s Kingdom that includes everyone. His words weren’t for a town long since deserted and left in ruins. They have inspired generations of followers to bold cling to the call of God and live with courage and faith. Today, it’s a reminder to care for the downtrodden, bring hope to the broken, and trust in God’s vision for our world. This is the Inauguration Day of the ministry of Jesus.
