    How Much Can God Trust You? Now, I want to warn you up front that today’s scripture… is a parable Jesus told his followers.

    It is obvious that Jesus is not commending this man for being underhanded or dishonest. But the shrewd manager is an example to us in that he saw clearly what the issues were, he cared about the outcome and he did something about it. Tonight I want us to

    This is one of the more difficult passages of Luke’s Gospel, and the interpretation of it divides commentators and preachers. What are we to make of it? I think the key to it is, once again, to look at it in the context of the central theme of Luke’s Gospel – what does it mean to ...read more

    The parable of the Shrewd Manager is an unusual story where the crook is commended. But Jesus has some important things to say about money and how we spend it.

    Our attitude toward money & how we use it is a barometer of our spiritual state. It reveals whether we are foolishly thinking only of the present or astutely looking to eternity. What is the purpose of money anyway?
