  • Faithful?

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,695 views

    We cannot be faithful to the world and faithful to God at the same time. We must learn to put God first and everything else behind God.

    Faithful? Luke 16: 1 - 13 Intro: A city boy moved to the country. He bought a donkey from an old farmer for $100. The farmer agreed to deliver the donkey. The next day the old farmer drove up and said, “Sorry son, but the donkey died.” The city boy replied, “Well, just give my money back.” ...read more

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

    Contributed by Nickolas Kooi on Sep 19, 2019

     | 7,930 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

  • Tears Of Rage (Tears Of Grief)

     | 3,645 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

  • Wisdom In Wealth

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Sep 22, 2019

     | 5,969 views

    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

  • Good Money After Bad

     | 3,683 views

    The parable of the dishonest steward points to imagination and how wealth can be used for the goodness of God's kingdom in our midst.

    September 22, 2019 Hope Lutheran Church Luke 16:1-13; Amos 8:4-7 Good Money after Bad Friends, may grace and peace be yours in abundance in the knowledge of God and Christ Jesus our Lord.

  • Luke 16:1-13 - Dirty Money And Kingdom Purposes

     | 1,577 views

    An interesting teaching on how we as disciples should view and utilize the money systems of this world.

    Last week, we were going through the parable of the prodigal son—prodigal meaning somebody who squanders resources. Today, we're going to be talking about the prodigal manager, another person who is squandering resources. Jesus is going to use this illustration to prove one main point, but ...read more

  • Managing Money God's Way: Sharing Series

    Contributed by Scott Bayles on Mar 24, 2022
     | 3,617 views

    Money plays a big role in our lives, so it shouldn't surprise us that the Bible has a lot to say about it. In this sermon, we discover that sharing our money should be purposeful, pleasant, and productive.

    Managing Money God’s Way: Sharing Scott Bayles, pastor Blooming Grove Christian Church: 10/9/16 Most of us have probably heard the saying, “Money talks.” Someone once said, “If money talks, all it ever says to me is good-bye!” I heard a story recently though about some talking money. A well-worn ...read more

  • Shrewd As Serpents Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 28, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,462 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

    The greatest investments are those in relationships with God and others

    "Tell me a Story” is a simple and shorter way to reference Jesus' use of parables. A parable is a relatable way to share a moral or spiritual lesson. Like the story an old friend shared about lending money to family or extended family. I was a new business owner and a relative came to me ...read more

  • Rewards From Our Returning King Series

    Contributed by Mark Hall on Sep 23, 2023
     | 1,278 views

    I give my full permission for this sermon to be used in whatever way can bring glory to God. In this Parable of the Mina, Jesus again reveals the wonderful gift of rewards that He has reserved for those who faithfully serve Him.

    REWARDS FROM OUR RETURNING KING Please open your Bible to Luke 19 as we conclude our series on Eternal Rewards with today’s message, “Rewards from Our Returning King.” Jesus gave two parables of what it would be like to stand before Him at His judgment seat. Last week, in the Parable of the Talents ...read more

    What about those who find themselves in possession of wealth that had some evil attached. What do you do with that property?

    Saturday of the 31st week in course 2023 Saint Paul wrote his letter to the Church at Rome during his lengthy stay with the Church of Corinth, so this happened late in his third and final missionary journey.

    How do you invest your time? How do you invest your money? What is of value to you? What do you consider pointless? What is your goal? What is the mission statement of your life?

    "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

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Aug 23, 2022
     | 1,256 views

    In Luke 16:8, the dishonest manger is called “Commended”, “Prudent,” which is to be “Clever,” “Resourceful.”

    Pink slip in hand, which is a notice of dismissal, given to this employee, who was a top manager; now this manager has to figure out fast how to get significant benefits from the soon-to-be former clients before he or she is terminated.

  • The Use And Abuse Of Money

    Contributed by David Zachrich on Aug 25, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,949 views

    We want our faith to be strong, certain, clear, constant. It is our prayer and fondest wish. But, sadly, faith sometimes seems weak, uncertain, cloudy, and intermittent. Why?

    Luke 16:1-15 The Use and Abuse of Money Friends in Christ, We want our faith to be strong, certain, clear, constant. It is our prayer and fondest wish. But, sadly, faith sometimes seems weak, uncertain, cloudy, and intermittent. Why? In his Gospel, St. Luke writes in chapter 15 about two ...read more
