Jesus Saw Levi

Jun 22, 2026    James Epperly

In this Good Morning LIVE teaching, Pastor James Epperly continues through the Gospel of Mark with the story of Jesus calling Levi, also known as Matthew, in Mark 2:13–17.

Levi was a tax collector, a man many people would have avoided, rejected, and written off. But Jesus saw more than his reputation. He saw what grace could make him. With two simple words — “Follow Me” — Jesus called Levi out of his old life and into a new one.


This message is a powerful reminder that Jesus still calls sinners, still transforms lives, and still sees beyond the labels people place on us. Levi the tax collector became Matthew the disciple and Gospel writer. That is what grace does.

If you have ever felt disqualified, overlooked, or too far gone, this teaching will encourage you. Jesus is the Great Physician, the Friend of Sinners, and He still invites people to get up, leave the old life behind, and follow Him.
