THE GOSPELS: Wisdom. Stature. Favor. || Luke 2:40; 52 || Sergio Fesiuk

What was Jesus doing for the first 30 years of His life? Why does Scripture highlight His growth instead of skipping straight to the miracles? In this message, we unpack Luke 2:40 and 2:52—two powerful verses that summarize the formation of Jesus in His youth.

Jesus, though fully God, submitted Himself to the ordinary, slow, and sacred process of human development. He grew—in wisdom, stature, and favor with God and people. Not because He lacked anything in divinity, but because He chose to model humanity at its fullest.

Through deep biblical insight, original Greek word studies, and practical wisdom, this sermon answers:

• Why did Jesus have to grow if He was sinless?

• What does it mean to be “strong in spirit” and “filled with wisdom”?

• How can we grow in favor with God and people today?

Whether you’re in a season of waiting, growing, or obscurity—Luke 2 reminds us: formation is not wasted time. It’s the way of Christ.

Key Takeaways:

• Formation is God’s method for greatness.

• Favor is grown, not grabbed.

• You don’t have to be fully formed to be fully loved.

Next Steps:

1. Pursue wisdom daily

2. Strengthen your spiritual capacity

3. Live by grace, not performance
