    God Has Spoken! Series

    based on 49 ratings
     | 12,543 views

    God has spoken to us repeatedly and in various ways, but supremely in His Son. How do we respond?

    God has spoken! Can you imagine how you would feel if you got a letter from the Queen? (I mean a real one, not just some standard letter sent by her officials.) How would you treat it? Would you throw it idly aside? Would you risk it getting lost or stained with tea? I don’t think so! You would ...read more

    Love And Insanity

     | 6,084 views

    This is a sermon with a strong call to stewardship as a response to God’s eternal love. This includes prayer, presence, gifts, and service as well as how we live our lives.

    Paonia United Methodist Church October 9, 2002 Rev. John Nadasi Matthew 21:33-46 The parallels are clear. The Pharisees knew he was talking about them. They had been given a vineyard to work in. Overtime, they claimed the vineyard as their own, No longer open to the outsider, but instead, a ...read more

    Would You Too Reject Him?

    Contributed by John Herrmann on Oct 4, 2002
    based on 44 ratings
     | 6,411 views

    In the parable of the vineyard and the "rejected cornerstone of Christ", we see how an ever near and patient God reveals himself in Creation and redemption -- working through the Holy Spirit to keep us from rejecting him.

    It would seem the vineyard image is appropriate for this time of year. I’ve read that the Napa Valley is expecting a great crush this year. In Amador County, here in California, there is weekend tasting and festivities in honor of the harvest vintage. Maybe some of our people are there right ...read more

    based on 46 ratings
     | 4,964 views

    Sermon describes the betrayal Jesus suffered in his final week, and how it compares with our betrayal of Him.

    JESUS BETRAYED! Most prisoners have a unique understanding of how Jesus felt in his last days. They arrive at the courthouse, only to see one of your best friends talking with the prosecutor. “Betrayal” summarizes well humanity’s response to Jesus. Please read Matthew 21:6-11; 33-40 The story ...read more

    Followers of Christ will not be received well by the world and its rulers, but we are called to be faithful.

    Introduction 1.

    Introduction 1. As we began worship today we heard the children sing Hosanna. As we read the liturgy for baptism and as the vows were made, we too said "hosanna." And as we read God’s word we heard both the people along the road into Jerusalem and the apostle Paul cry out "Hosanna!" 2. Some of ...read more

     | 17,438 views

    In order to experience the joy of giving: 1. We must recognize God’s ownership of everything. 2. We must live a life of stewardship. 3. We must want to bless more than we want to be blessed.

    The church service ended at the Lutheran Church in New Sweden, Maine as everyone “passed the peace.” It was the first Sunday after Easter, and the 50 people in attendance headed to the fellowship hour to have some coffee.

    Tipping Points

    Contributed by William Mouser on Oct 25, 2005
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,689 views

    In the final days of Jesus’ earthly ministry, the Jews reached a tipping point in their rebellion against God. Nations, kings, and ordinary men arrive at tipping points, from which they retreat, or pass on to judgment.

    Matthew 21:33-43 Tipping Points The gospel for today recounts yet another parable which Jesus told against the religious establishment of Israel. After he had spoken the parable, Matthew records these words: 45 Now when the chief priests and Pharisees heard His parables, they perceived that He ...read more

     | 40,887 views

    This parable of Jesus tells the story of the world and its rebellion against God. Jesus was also predicting his own death.

    The Tenants Matthew 21:33-46 Jesus tells this very interesting and provocative story about a landowner and some farmers to whom he rented his land. In Jesus’ story, the landowner does all the work in the beginning. The land is his, and he plants a vineyard. He digs a winepress where the grapes ...read more

    Tenant Farming is simalar to Share Cropping. the owner gets his first!

    SHARE CROPPERS When I was a very young man, my family lived and worked on a farm. We were sharecroppers for a while, and I can assure you it is not a life I would recommend to any one. Landowners would find large mostly poor families and hire them as sharecroppers, which meant basically free ...read more

    Listen to a Genuine Love Song 1) Learn how much God has done for you 2) Learn how much God expects from you

    What percentage of songs on the radio is about love? 50%? 75%? 90%? I don’t know the exact percentage but whether it’s rock, pop, or country, I’d say that most songs are about love and relationships. Does this mean that songwriters understand love because they write about it so much? No. Not when ...read more
