Luke 17:11-19

Listen to Luke 17:11-19

11 While Jesus was on his way to Jerusalem, he was going through the area between Samaria and Galilee.

12 As he came into a small town, ten men who had a skin disease met him there. They did not come close to Jesus

13 but called to him, "Jesus! Master! Have mercy on us!"

14 When Jesus saw the men, he said, "Go and show yourselves to the priests." As the ten men were going, they were healed.

15 When one of them saw that he was healed, he went back to Jesus, praising God in a loud voice.

16 Then he bowed down at Jesus' feet and thanked him. (And this man was a Samaritan.)

17 Jesus said, "Weren't ten men healed? Where are the other nine?

18 Is this Samaritan the only one who came back to thank God?"

19 Then Jesus said to him, "Stand up and go on your way. You were healed because you believed."

Thanksgiving Is Two Directional

Pastor Jack Morris

On today’s Healing Word broadcast, Pastor Jack Morris shares a message titled Thanksgiving Is Two Directional. Rooted in Luke 17:11–19, this passage tells the story of ten lepers who cried out to Jesus for healing—and how only one of them returned to give thanks.Pastor Jack reminds us that true thanksgiving isn’t complete until it moves in two directions: upward, in gratitude to God, and outward, in the way we live and serve others. Gratitude is more than words—it’s a lifestyle that reflects our awareness of God’s mercy and our willingness to act in response to it.

With A Thankful Heart

Pastor Jack Morris

Luke 17:11-19 Now on his way to Jerusalem, Jesus traveled along the border between Samaria and Galilee. As he was going into a village, ten men who had leprosy met him. They stood at a distance and called out in a loud voice, “Jesus, Master, have pity on us!” When he saw them, he said, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.” And as they went, they were cleansed. One of them, when he saw he was healed, came back, praising God in a loud voice. He threw himself at Jesus’ feet and thanked him—and he was a Samaritan. Jesus asked, “Were not all ten cleansed? Where are the other nine? Has no one returned to give praise to God except this foreigner?” Then he said to him, “Rise and go; your faith has made you well.”
