    Appreciate the heart of the Father. Don’t waste your life away. Treasure the resources God has given us. Love the things He loves.

    (I have taken most thoughts in this sermon from Rodney J. Buchanan’s ’The Father’s House’, July 7, 2002, Mulberry St. UMC, Mt. Vernon, OH.) Let’s take a look at this interesting story again. Looking at the three characters in this story, we can learn something about ourselves and our heavenly ...read more

    The Bible word for helping is serving.

    Does anything like this ever happen at your house? Anybody there ever start throwing a pity-party? “I’m the only one doing anything around here. No one really appreciates me.” The attitude has kicked in. Someone finally notices that you aren’t very happy. “Hey! What’s wrong with you?” ...read more

    The pharisees and the teachers of the law had a warped view of God... and many today have the same problem. What did Jesus mean to teach about the Father in this parable?

    OPEN: (It is best to memorize the following illustration to allow for optimum delivery) “Feeling footloose and frisky, a featherbrained fellow forced his fond father to fork over the farthings and flew far to foreign fields and frittered his fortune, feasting fabulously with faithless friends. ...read more

    Many people struggle with this well-known parable. Jesus seems to condone rather selfish, shady money-dealing. Actually the Gospel of forgiveness lies at its heart: are we ready to forgive?

    I don’t know about you, but I do have certainly difficulties with this parable. I’ve always tended to skirt around them, I must admit. But with this text in front of me for this morning I was forced to think about it more seriously. And I find that many of the problems are actually only on the ...read more

    Are we as willing to work hard on our relationship with Jesus as the dishonest steward was willing to work for his own future?

    When one person comes to faith in Jesus there is rejoicing in heaven. Who are sinners and who are the righteous are described in this message.

Jesus said: “For the Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost.” (Luke 19:10) Jesus was not talking about finding people who were lost as they were traveling from one city to ...read more
