    Wisdom In Wealth

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Sep 22, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 6,152 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

    Because the Father loves the Son and calls Him "beloved," we who are in Christ are beloved also. For The Baptism of the Lord Sunday, the First Sunday after the Epiphany.

    You Are My Son, the Beloved Mark 1:4-11 We have come to the Sunday on the Church calendar where we remember that Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist in the Jordan.

    We have been given a priceless gift of grace which needs to be fleshed out in our relationships.

    The Parable of the Unforgiving Servant: An Exposition of Matthew 18:21-35 We live in a world which demands “justice.” People have always demanded justice. Often this demand to justice leads to violence. On the other hand, people demand “grace” for themselves. This is the way it always has been. It ...read more

    Spitfire

    How many times have we spit fire and have said more than we meant to say? How many times have we lost our cool? James is talking about teaching and self-control as it relates to speech.

    SPITFIRE (September 16, 2012) Text: James 3:1- 12 Jas 3:1-12  Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers and sisters, for you know that we who teach will be judged with greater strictness.  (2)  For all of us make many mistakes. Anyone who makes no mistakes in speaking is ...read more

    On All Saints Day, we join in a family celebration made possible by our Triune God. All Saints Day is not a day of mourning the dead, but a day of celebrating the life we have in Christ, and a chance to look ahead at the joys before us!

    Some kids were outside at recess playing on the school playground, as kids do. And, as kids do, they began teasing one another. But the thing is, kids, you know, when they’re teasing, don’t always have a good understanding of how far is too far. And so, these kids start to pick ...read more

    This is the first of 7 I AM statements in the gospel? What does this mean.

    I AM the Bread of Life John 6:22-51 There are seven I AM statements in the Gospel of John which have predicates which describe something about Jesus. There are also several occurrences of the I AM without a predicate. The way the statement is made in Greek, as it is not grammatically necessary to ...read more

    Long Live The King!

     | 6,553 views

    Shouldn’t we as Christians also be willing to pay the price, especially when we are called by Christ to fight for the truth? After all, he is the final authority and power in the universe. Christ is King

    Today we mark the church’s version of New Year’s Eve. Next Sunday marks the start of Advent and Year C in the three year cycle of readings from the Revised Common Lectionary.

     | 1,688 views

    The whole world was shaken and changed because of what God did. Have you been shaken? Have you changed?

    When I preach from the lectionary, which I do most of the time unless I'm working on a series, one of the first things I do is to try and find the common thread among the different passages. And on this glorious day when we celebrate the resurrection of our Lord, the central message is ...read more

    Each of these incidents is a sign from God reminding us that life is temporary but that God is eternal.

    What’s the first thing you think of when you hear of falling towers and people dying? Right. Nine-eleven. And looking around on the web I found that even though this is the gospel passage for the third Sunday in Lent of Cycle C of the lectionary, by far the most sermons were written on this topic ...read more

     | 2,084 views

    The accounts of the woman with the issue of blood and the raising to Jairus daughter are interleaved. Why?

    The Raising of Jairus' Daughter Matthew 9:18–26 NKJV While He spoke these things to them, behold, a ruler came and worshiped Him, saying, “My daughter has just died, but come and lay Your hand on her and she will live.” So Jesus arose and followed him, and so did His disciples.

    "She was very old; she had lived with her husband seven years after her marriage, and then was a widow until she was eighty-four" (Luke 2:36–37). Anna had been married only seven years when she became a widow, and she remained a widow for the rest of her life.

     | 2,294 views

    These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter Fifteen. In his work, "What does every Bible chapter say..." John Hunt gives an overview of each chapter of the Bible. It is my intention to do the same thing here.

    GENESIS CHAPTER FIFTEEN OVERVIEW Overall what is happening in this chapter is God makes a covenant with Abram. Thomas Coke (1801) – Genesis 15 Abram believes God, who promised him a seed which shall equal the stars in number. He is commanded to prepare victims; falls into a deep sleep, and hears ...read more
