  • Overwhelming Grace: The Prodigal Son, The Unjust Steward, And You!

    Contributed by Nickolas Kooi on Sep 19, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 7,415 views

    This sermon examines the relationship between the prodigal son, unjust steward, and the hearer. It draws upon the parallels among all three to make a Gospel application. I am indebted to Dr. David Schmidt's observations on this text found on 1517.org for the idea.

    A few weeks ago, I bought the movie Dunkirk on sale, which is about the evacuation of over 300,000 British troops after the Fall of France in World War II. I tried to watch this movie at night as I was going to bed. Between falling asleep, helping with Mia, or checking my phone, the movie took ...read more

     | 3,356 views

    How to turn tears of Rage and Grief into tears of Joy.

    The vicar and I have this ongoing debate about whether you need to include every reading in each sermon. She reckons you should, I think that if they aren’t obviously related then pick one or two and concentrate on them. Jeremiah 8.18 - 9.1; Psalm 79.1-9; 1 Timothy 2.1-10; Luke 16.1-13 That ...read more

    In perhaps the most challenging parable to understand, Jesus calls us to use our worldly wealth for divine purposes, to be faithful where we are, and to keep God first in our lives.

    Luke 16:1-13 Wisdom in Wealth What if you came to church one Sunday, and your pastor got up to give the sermon and said, “I don’t have a clue what this means!” Well, I’m pretty close to that with today’s passage. Maybe you could relate to that kind of pastor, since sometimes the Bible is just hard ...read more

Every story has a main character. But sometimes that main character isn’t the person you’d expect. You can’t ...read more

  • A Prosperous Hand Is Seldom Pious

    Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Apr 13, 2019
     | 2,683 views

    Should we not resist to flaunt wealth or even seek it as a pastor when the world and even poor Christians think we lack integrity loving mammon rather than God?

    "Piety and prosperity seldom go hand in hand..." "We live in a day when the temptation to the indulgence of the flesh is very great. Luxuries are common. Piety and prosperity seldom go hand in hand, and in many a case the prosperity that piety and power have brought has been the ruin ...read more

  • Favor Follows Faithfulness Series

    Contributed by Cameron Conway on Feb 19, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 11,085 views

    Throughout the scriptures we see pictures of how the faithful few took God’s words seriously and lived accordingly. They lived out their beliefs and in turn god brought about the manifestation of the things which were promised to them.

It’s an odd concept but it carries with it a crucial truth which has the potential to radically change our lives. But ...read more

    we are reminded that we must have a social conscience

    May the words of my mouth and the meditations of my heart be acceptable to you, my Lord and my Redeemer.

    Jesus wants you to use your final days and your money to win friends for your future: “And I tell you, make friends for yourselves by means of unrighteous wealth, so that when it fails they may receive you into the eternal dwellings” (Luke 16:9).

    This morning I want to put a bow on our series, Margin, by examining Jesus’ words on the important subject of money. In week one, we learned the value of contentment. In week two, we learned the value of saving for a rainy day. Last week, we saw something of the joy of giving. Today, I want you to ...read more

     | 2,154 views

    Paul used personal ingenuity and shrewd strategy to accomplish God’s ultimate will. We, too, can better serve God if we embrace the unlikely combination of being innocent but yet shrewd.

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,354 views

    The parable of the unjust steward (Luke 16:1-13) is a parable that has been awkward for some to understand. It is awkward because, it seems, that the unjust steward gets rewarded for his crookedness. It was about grace when we don't deserve it.

    WHEN SLICK GOT CAUGHT Text: Luke 16:1-13 The parable of the unjust steward (Luke 16:1-13) is a parable that has been awkward for some to understand. It is awkward because, it seems, that the unjust steward gets rewarded for his crookedness. But, the truth of the matter is that he ...read more

  • Shrewd As Serpents Series

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Mar 28, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,972 views

    “Be shrewd as serpents and innocent as doves” (Mt. 10:16). This verse is not advocating hypocrisy. We are not to employ the methods of the ungodly, but we should posses a similar creative capacity. We need to be clever in our dealings.

    In Matthew 10:16, Jesus advised us to “be shrewd as serpents and innocent as doves.” Was Jesus telling believers to be two-faced hypocrites? Was He saying we need to be unjust in our daily activities and dealings, and then turn right around and act like model Christians on Sunday? No. Jesus was ...read more

    "Charles Francis Adams, 19th century political figure and diplomat, kept a diary. One day he entered: "Went fishing with my son today--a day wasted." His son, Brook Adams, also kept a diary, which is still in existence. On that same day, Brook Adams made this entry: "Went ...read more
