Week 10

This Week’s Bible Story

Zacchaeus (Luke 19:1-10) Jesus meets a tax collector named Zacchaeus (zack-ee-us). Jesus decided to have dinner with the man in his home, but the people were not happy because people did not like tax collectors very much. Zacchaeus chose to make things right after all the wrong things he had done. Jesus came to seek and save the lost — just like he did with Zacchaeus!
