THERE'S STILL ROOM - CHRIS HODGES

Main message: Jesus calls believers not just to receive God’s invitation to salvation, but to pass it on to others. The sermon emphasizes that we should keep inviting, even when people reject us or seem overlooked, because God wants His house full and there is still room.

Key points:

• Humility matters: Jesus first warns against self-exaltation at a banquet and teaches taking the lowest place.
• Believers have been entrusted with God’s invitation, not just invited to the table themselves.
• Don’t let rejection stop the invitation; people may say no, but we should keep praying and inviting.
• Reach the people others overlook: the poor, crippled, blind, lame, and others on the margins.
• God cares deeply about the lost; Jesus came to seek and save those who are lost.
• The goal is not to fill a church but to fill heaven, because God is patient and does not want anyone to perish.
