Passage: Matthew 25:1-30

Jesus continues his discourse on what it means to live ready for his return, which he explains could come at any time in history.  While we may think of living ready in one way (bunkers, imperishable food storage, piles of ammunition, etc.), Jesus thinks of living ready as obedience to him.  But to live a life of discipleship to Jesus will require wisdom to plan for long term commitment, faithfulness to do what we can with what we have, and even risk as we go forth with the courage the Gospel gives.

 

Due to unforeseen technical difficulties, the sermon recording during the service is not available. Mike, However, re-recorded the message in a podcast style for listening.
