    This sermon looks at Jesus's secrets of growing a good vineyard and how those secrets will aid us in growing a strong spiritual life.

    How many of you were here a few weeks ago when I shared my secrets to doing laundry? I shared how you have to make sure you sort the clothes. You have to check the pockets. You might have to treat some of the stains and you have to use the right water. You might have been impressed that I ...read more

    Would You Too Reject Him?

    Contributed by John Herrmann on Oct 4, 2002

     | 6,420 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

    But whatever happens on November 3, God remains supreme, and God’s glory is assured, in our hearts and worship and ultimately in the victory Christ has won.

    27th Sunday in Course A 2020 The Plague Year Homilies About forty years after the Resurrection of Jesus, in the third year of the Jewish revolution against the Romans, Supreme Leader Titus encircled the walls of Jerusalem and began a siege.

    Jesus uses the picture of a vineyard to teach us about how to have real life, good fruit and benefit from the Lord pruning our lives.

    We live in the midst of Oregon wine country. Traveling down any rural road around Newberg and Dundee yields a plethora of tourist signs leading to vineyards and wineries with hard to pronounce names. Gentle hillsides that once grew part of the world’s largest crop of Christmas trees are now covered ...read more

    Let's Go Fox Hunting!

    based on 58 ratings
     | 7,414 views

    A look at how this elegant love song has an important message for us today. We will focus on three things: the foxes; the vines (the vineyard) and the grapes.

    LET’S GO FOX HUNTING! “Catch us the foxes, The little foxes that spoil the vines, For our vines have tender grapes.” Song of Solomon 2:15 (NKJV) The Song of Solomon is a love song rife with metaphor and allegory. On the face of it, this elegant song depicts the courtship of King Solomon and a ...read more

    An Unfair God?

    Contributed by William Mouser on Sep 19, 2005
    based on 9 ratings
     | 8,152 views

    In dispensing eternal life, God is just as gracious to the death-bed convert as he is one born and reared in the faith. Jesus’ parable of the Vineyard Workers shows us why.

    An Unfair God? Matthew 20:1-16 Somewhere in the Charlie Brown cartoon canon, there is an episode where Lucy and Charlie are walking home from school. Lucy has a report card in her hand and she is clearly not pleased. She turns to Charlie, and, complains: "It isn’t fair Charlie Brown, it just ...read more

    We are the branches in His vineyard. God watches over us, and works in our lives, for the purpose of bearing more fruit. Glorifying God is our life’s purpose.

    These were the parting words of Jesus, as He would soon be betrayed, to be judged and crucified. • The disciples will be separated from Him for a while, having been with Him for 3 years. He will return as the resurrected Lord in their lives. They need to stay focus and faithful to Him, to ...read more

    Introduction (Secure Attention): We all go through it. We face it many times in our lives. Whenever it comes, it paralyzes our spiritual lives. I’m talking about discouragement.

    “What more could have been done to my vineyard that I have not done in it? Why then, when I expected it to bring forth good grapes, did it bring forth wild grapes?” Is. 5:4

    Theme: Producing Fruits of the Kingdom Text: Is. 5:1-7; Phil. 3:4b-14; Matt. 21:33-46 In recent years it has become evident that the focus of many people in the world is no longer on Christ.

    Somewhere along the way to the Garden of Gethsemane Jesus stopped at a vineyard and compared His relationship to His followers to that of a vine and its branches to assure His followers of a productive and gratifying life.

    John Chapter 15 The setting for this chapter is somewhere along the way to the Garden of Gethsemane. Perhaps Jesus stopped at a vineyard terraced along the hillside at one of the wealthy homes along the way, and compared His relationship to His followers to that of a vine and its branches, to ...read more

    God's Expectation Series

    Contributed by Rule Digal on Aug 11, 2008
     | 10,159 views

    The focal point of this parable is God’s expectation of His people, Israel or Christians. God is the owner of the vineyard who inspects and expects the fig tree –His people to bear fruit.

    This morning, we will study the parable of the barren fig tree. This parable is one of the shortest parables of our Lord in the Gospels. We don’t have fig trees here in the Philippines, so most of us I believe have not seen a fig tree. Fortunately, the internet is giving us anything we want to ...read more

    Jesus’ parable of the vineyard was a stern warning to the Jewish religious leaders of His day. It is also a warning we should heed lest our seat in His kingdom be given to someone else.

    -Has it ever happened to you? -Have you ever “lost” something that “belonged” to you? -I don’t mean “lost” and “belonged” in the same way you are thinking -I really mean, has somebody ever given something that you thought should be yours to somebody else instead -How did that feel? Probably about ...read more

     | 156 views

    1 Kings 21 is a powerful reminder that no abuse of power escapes the eyes of God. Ahab may have taken Naboth’s vineyard, but he couldn’t take it without consequence.

Samuel Arimoro Main Text: 1 Kings 21:1-29 Supporting Texts: Micah 6:8; Isaiah 5:20-23; Proverbs 6:16-19; Psalm 94:20-23; Luke 12:15 INTRODUCTION: 1 Kings 21 records one of the darkest moments in King Ahab’s reign—the unjust seizure ...read more
