What happens when we don't think we get what's coming to us? It's easy to grumble in Christian life because we believe God is blessing others more than us. But what happens to our spiritual walk when we grumble? In this sermon, Fr. Stephen reflects on the danger of pride and considers why it might be wise to let go of our desire for God to be fair. We actually need Him to be generous.
Scripture Passage: Matthew 20:1-16
Preached on the 16th Sunday after Pentecost, the 20th of September, by Rev. Stephen Silverthorne
Sermon Highlights
- Perspective affects how we understand Jesus' parables
- How this parable invites us to see ourselves as needing grace
- How this parable invites us to extend grace to others
- How this parable invites us to reimagine service to God
