    The parable of the talents begins and ends with the master. Perhaps it is not about the talents, then, but the master.

    “Connected: A Good Designer” Ephesians 4:7-13; Mathew 25:14-30 Some labels miss the point and purpose of their product’s existence. For example, a hair dryer had this instruction label: “Don’t use while sleeping.” Or consider this one on a toilet at a public ...read more

    Many of us are too quick to throw in he towel and give up on God; when we do that we are doing exactly what the devil wants us to do. We are to persevere and trust God to do the impossible.

    This morning I want to talk a little about the rewards of never giving up on God. Today’s gospel story is about a persistent woman and a disinterested God. It is also about a mother who would not take “no” as an answer. The woman was a Canaanite which meant she was a gentile. She ...read more

    Jesus' parable of the talents is a call to us to invest all that we are and all that we have in God's kingdom building work. The story reminds us not to compare, but to faithfully invest what we have, and to get to know the Master's heart.

Because the story uses the word “talent” throughout. Our English word “talent” actually comes from that interpretation of ...read more

It can be a technique that we can be quite ...read more
