St. Luke: The Gospel of Mission and the Holy Spirit’s Role

St. Luke: The Gospel of Mission and the Holy Spirit’s Role

Sep 03, 2025

Dr. Schreck discusses some of the distinctive themes in the Gospel of St. Luke, especially as a “Gospel of mission” addressed to a Gentile (non-Jewish) audience.

St. Luke highlights the role of the Holy Spirit in this mission, providing both guidance and power. This explains the desire of “the heavenly Father [to] give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him” (Lk 11:13).
