    Are you having a marvelous day?

    Who Made Your Day? "Go ahead, make my day!" Dirty Harry loved to say this and in his case, his day was made by punks who felt lucky and ended up dead by the world’s most powerful handgun. We have appropriated the phrase and use it for different things. Let someone bring more stuff to dump in ...read more

    Followers of Christ will not be received well by the world and its rulers, but we are called to be faithful.

    Introduction 1.

    Introduction 1. As we began worship today we heard the children sing Hosanna. As we read the liturgy for baptism and as the vows were made, we too said "hosanna." And as we read God’s word we heard both the people along the road into Jerusalem and the apostle Paul cry out "Hosanna!" 2. Some of ...read more

    Contrasts the notion of Christ as foundation with Christ as Capstone, leading us up towards God.

    Sermon: 28th March 1999 (My very first sermon before beginning at Theological College) "The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; this was the Lord’s doing, and it is amazing in our eyes"?

    God has spoken to us repeatedly and in various ways, but supremely in His Son. How do we respond?

    God has spoken! Can you imagine how you would feel if you got a letter from the Queen? (I mean a real one, not just some standard letter sent by her officials.) How would you treat it? Would you throw it idly aside? Would you risk it getting lost or stained with tea? I don’t think so! You would ...read more

    This is a sermon with a strong call to stewardship as a response to God’s eternal love. This includes prayer, presence, gifts, and service as well as how we live our lives.

    Paonia United Methodist Church October 9, 2002 Rev. John Nadasi Matthew 21:33-46 The parallels are clear. The Pharisees knew he was talking about them. They had been given a vineyard to work in. Overtime, they claimed the vineyard as their own, No longer open to the outsider, but instead, a ...read more

    Would You Too Reject Him?

    Contributed by John Herrmann on Oct 4, 2002
    based on 44 ratings
     | 6,484 views

    In the parable of the vineyard and the "rejected cornerstone of Christ", we see how an ever near and patient God reveals himself in Creation and redemption -- working through the Holy Spirit to keep us from rejecting him.

    It would seem the vineyard image is appropriate for this time of year. I’ve read that the Napa Valley is expecting a great crush this year. In Amador County, here in California, there is weekend tasting and festivities in honor of the harvest vintage. Maybe some of our people are there right ...read more

    Bearing Fruit

     | 29,094 views

    What happens when Jesus inspects your life? He cursed the fig tree because it didn’t bear fruit - why? And how do we bear fruit for our Savior?

    I have three fruit trees in my backyard. I would not call it an orchard – just three trees – a plum, a pear, and an apple. It’s not an orchard, nor am I an orchardist – or whatever you are when you have an orchard. I think my trees know it too – they get together every winter and say "how are we ...read more

    The Wicked Tenants

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Oct 12, 2002
    based on 119 ratings
     | 14,270 views

    The Biblical metaphor of Jesus being the cornerstone which the builders rejected conveys the understanding that without Jesus we can do nothing (John 15:5).

    THE WICKED TENANTS Text: Matthew 21:33-46 In modern day, we tend to think of a cornerstone as a stone that is inscribed and placed in the corner of the foundation of a building that marks the beginning of the building. The way that the Bible uses the word cornerstone means much more than ...read more

    Like so much of life, the parables of Jesus are often stories of violence. Here the violence is between a landlord and his tenants. ...

    “We were told that this [operation] was against armed people and against people climbing on our armed vehicles.

    A Little Shady Accounting

     | 4,827 views

    As long as there have been people in the world some have tried to cheat others. In the Parable of the Vineyard, that is exactly what happened.

    Having served most of my ministry in rural east Texas, several of my church members have done some farming. And over those years I became at least somewhat familiar with sharecropping, particularly a form of it that they called farming on the halves. At first thought, I would never have imagined ...read more
