Where do you go to express your gratitude?

What if your gratitude could become an act of profound worship? In Luke’s story of ten lepers healed by Jesus, the response of one Samaritan highlights a transformative truth. While nine rushed to the Temple following tradition, this outsider returned to Jesus himself—recognising Him as the true centre of divine presence. Through this compelling narrative, we discover that authentic thanksgiving isn’t about rituals or locations, but about encountering Christ as our living Temple. 

Whether you’re seeking a connection with God or wrestling with feelings of being an outsider, this message reveals how gratitude can become your pathway to a deeper worship experience. Don’t miss this fresh perspective on finding your spiritual home in Jesus.

This week’s sermon was prepared for Holy Trinity Anglican Church, Pascoe Vale.
