    “Does the Bible have anything to say about planning?” The answer is yes! So, in our time together this morning, I would like to look at what the Bible has to say about plans and planning.

    God Manages His Vineyard Well

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 18, 2025
     | 104 views

    Jesus reworks the old parable of the vineyard to fit the new barbarism. He directs the moral at the human vineyard managers, the religious and secular men who treat the Law and Temple as their personal fiefdom.

    Friday of the Second Week of Lent 2025 St. Matthew’s Gospel is moving toward its climax, which is called Holy Week. Frequently we see Jesus crossing swords verbally with his adversaries. Jesus was an out-of-towner, considered a religious zealot and “hick” by the secular and religious authorities ...read more

    Originally titled "Is the Lord With Us Or Not?," this sermon is looking at our doubt of God’s presence. The invitation is to deeper Christian discipleship to strengthen our assurance.

    Originally, I intended to look at this Bible story two weeks ago. At the time, the name of the sermon was “Is The Lord With Us Or Not?” Certainly it is a question many Americans have asked in recent days. One approach to developing timely and appropriate sermons is to hold the Bible in one hand ...read more
