Like other Gospels, Luke’s Gospel recounts the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, the Son of God, who fulfills all of his Father’s saving promises. Unlike other Gospels, Luke has a companion volume—Acts—in which salvation advances, in Jesus’ name, to “the end of the earth” (Acts 1:8). Luke’s Gospel invites us to be part of this worldwide spread of the Christian message by showing how Jesus brings salvation to the last, the lost, and the least.
