    The Parable Of The Just Steward

    Contributed by The Rev Deniray Mueller on Sep 17, 2019
     | 4,117 views

    Do we answer to our own priorities or God?

    Luke 16:1-13 As you might have noticed, we have been reading a lot of parables from Luke in the last few months; this is Year C in the Episcopal lectionary. . . the year of Luke. And Luke seemed to concentrate on Jesus and his parables as teaching tools. We started out with some gentle parables ...read more

    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!

    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

    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

    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

    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.

    A Prosperous Hand Is Seldom Pious

    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

    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

    When you know you’ll have to depend on your friends when your luck goes sour, you build in as much good will as you can along the way.”

    Levi was puzzled. The last time Jesus told a story about a rich man whose steward was mismanaging the estate while the owner was away, the owner kicked the guy out and brought in a new men. He understood that. It was like God was the rich man and the Pharisees and the priests were the stewards, and ...read more

    God expects us to be faithful in everything that He has entrusted to us, especially with our finances. Let’s learn how to give cheerfully, and in a way that is pleasing to God.

    In Judges 6:12-13, we read, the Lord’s angel appeared to him there and said, “The LORD is with you, brave and mighty man!" Gideon said to him, "If I may ask, sir, why has all this happened to us if the LORD is with us? What happened to all the wonderful things that our fathers told us the ...read more

    Serving the Lord is not all that complicated. Just serve Him faithfully and humbly. Every day, just humbly do what He asks you to do and leave the results up to Him.

    I’ve had some experience in signing contracts with various musicians over the years to do concerts in the church. Those contracts spell out the details of what each party expects, and they contain few, if any, surprises. That’s not the case with some of the big-name entertainers. For example, Van ...read more

    The unjust steward is not commended for his fraud, but for his thinking on his feet.

    THE PARABLE OF THE UNJUST STEWARD. Luke 16:1-13. For centuries interpreters have been more than a little puzzled, perplexed and disturbed by the parable of the unjust steward, at the beginning of Luke 16. The Emperor Julian, otherwise known as Julian the Apostate, even tried to use this parable ...read more
