The Bible tells a story of a wee little man, a story that we have minimized by making it a children's sing-along. Zacchaeus was an outsider, he was a fringe guy and he was despised. Could it be that he climbed a tree because no one would make room for him along the road? He is the least likely guy anyone would want to hang out with and especially if you were religious. And yet Jesus seeks him out! It seems to me that as we cross into the Kingdom we tend to avoid people like this and yet...Jesus seeks him out! Why do we need a Zacchaeus in our life...join us Sunday as we look at the first of the Eleven that can't give us anything...or do they?
Matthew 25:34-40, Luke 19: 1-10
