Luke was a Doctor who investigated Jesus’ life, death and resurrection. He tells us why he wrote the book that bears his name:
Many have undertaken to draw up an account of the things that have been fulfilled among us, just as they were handed down to us by those who from the first were eyewitnesses… with this in mind, since I myself have carefully investigated everything from the beginning, I too decided to write an orderly account… so that you may know the certainty of the things you have been taught. (Luke 1:1-4)
As we work our way through chapters 9-19 of Luke’s book, come and check out the eyewitness evidence about Jesus and make up your mind for yourself – about who he is, what he claimed, and why he matters.
