Ready & Faithful Youth Sermon

Contributed by Youth Sermons on Sep 5, 2023

In this passage, we receive the encouragement from Christ to be faithful and to remain ready. We can remain faithful because He is a good shepherd who looks over His flock. We stay ready because we don’t know the day or the hour when Christ will return, but we trust that He is coming soon.

Today, we're going to talk about being ready and faithful. Life can be pretty unpredictable, right? Sometimes we're prepared for what's coming, and other times, we're caught off guard.

A Work In Progress Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jan 14, 2001

When the real Jesus is seen, he presents problems -- either he is too difficult for us to accept, or he is offensive to our sloppy ways of doing church, or we are just too tired of churchiness -- but his words of life revive our weariness.

The idea of “To Tell the Truth” is that three people come out, and they all stand and give a name – the same name. Then someone reads a few sentences about the person who actually has ...read more
