    Sermon for Luke 16:1-13 September 23rd 2007 What do you think guys and gals?

    What if our country decided to lower the standards of competition? Anyone who wanted to go to the Olympics and represent our country could go. What would the result be? What if this same idea of lowering standards was done in the church?
