Comments? Questions? Send us a message!This is the first in a three part series which can be helpful to senior pastors and church leadership teams re: how to practically deal with giving and stewardship in their churches. First, we'll look at where teaching and leading on giving and stewardship fit within the overall concept of equipping the saints for ministry ... which we pastors are called by God to do.It may be a new thought for some, but teaching and leading in these areas is part of Christian discipleship, which we're also called to do.We'll even go so far as to say that we can't develop fully mature believers without helping them discover and practice these truths.If Jesus instructed His disciples (and us) in these matters, then this must be part of our curriculum as we disciple others. The transcript of this podcast is attached. For Poimen Ministries, its staff, ministries, and focus, go to poimenministries.com. To contact Poimen Ministries, email us at strongerpastors@gmail.com. May the Lord revive His work in the midst of these years!

Dave Osborne preaches Luke 16:1-9 on July 20, 2025 at Christ Presbyterian Church.
Let's talk about two of today's parables that are different from the others, because in them Jesus points to sinful men as examples of that which is good, which is confusing on the face of it, but let me explain. In the parable of the dishonest manager, his goal is to show his people how to think about wealth and earthly possessions: we are to use them to win favor with others while we still have them. In the parable of the persistent widow, God the Father is compared to an unjust judge. The goal, however, is to argue from the lesser to the greater. If an unjust judge will give justice through persistence, how much more so will the righteous judge grant justice to those who earnestly pray?Luke 16 - 1:08 . Luke 17 - 7:20 . Luke 18 - 13:42 .

Reading Luke 16:1-17 where Jesus tells the parable of the dishonest manager, a lesson to His disciples about making the most of every opportunity to the glory of God. Visit wwutt.com for all our videos!
The Parable of the Shrewd Manager – What Was Jesus Thinking?At first glance, Luke 16:1–13 is one of Jesus' most confusing parables. A dishonest manager gets fired, cuts deals behind his boss's back, and is praised for it. Then Jesus says, “Be like that guy.” What does this mean?In this sermon, Pastor Mark explores how Jesus isn't celebrating dishonesty but calling his followers to be wise, strategic, and generous. In a world driven by wealth, disciples are called to be spiritually savvy—using what we have to invest in what matters most.Learn how faithful stewardship, intentional living, and bold generosity can reflect God's kingdom in a world that often gets it wrong.

Worship - June 29, 2025 “The Parable of the Rich Man & Lazarus” - Luke 16:19-31Associate Pastor Eric Beckman
In this episode we feature a talk on Luke 16:19-31 by evangelist Rico Tice. It's a talk which concerns the parable of the rich man and Lazarus, and in it, Rico warns people who do not yet know Jesus about the dangers of meeting God as an unforgiven person, even when they enjoyed many blessings in this life. On the following episode, we'll be speaking to Rico more about this talk and asking him more about his work as an evangelist.

Welcome to Generation! ⛪︎Hell. It's one of the most uncomfortable, often rejected teachings in the Bible, yet Jesus spoke of it more than anyone else. Why? This message confronts the hard truths found in Jesus' words about judgment, warning, and the eternal consequences of a life lived apart from God. But it does so with an unexpected twist: showing how even the doctrine of hell can lead us to deeper self-awareness, peace, and a clearer picture of God's love.Through the story of the rich man and Lazarus, we explore three counterintuitive truths:Hell helps us understand where we find our identityHell helps us live at peace in a broken worldHell helps us know the radical, sacrificial love of JesusThis is not a message of fear, but of rescue, a sobering yet hope-filled invitation to find your life, your peace, and your future in the only One who faced the fire so you would never have to.

Sermon June 15 - The Rich Man and Lazarus: Luke 16:19-31 by Sunnybrook Christian Church
Series: Luke Speaker: Sam Simanjuntak Sermon points: 1. Deaf to God's message 2. Numb to the weight of God's law 3. Blind to what God is doing
But Abraham said, ‘They have Moses and the Prophets; let them hear them.' Luke 16:29 ESV I don't know if it's a “guy thing,” but I seem to never be able to find anything in the refrigerator. I'll stand there staring, looking for one thing, absolutely convinced it isn't in there, then insist that what I need was never available in the first place. It isn't until I humble myself (usually out of immature frustration) and ask my wife, “Babe, do you know where this is? I don't see it!” that things get solved. Two seconds tops:“Top shelf, behind the ketchup.” After all my insistence, what I needed was in front of me the whole time. I usually find what I need, but it takes some humbling to get there. Most of the time in life, what we need is right in front of us. As Christians, God has given us everything necessary to thrive: His Word, His Holy Spirit, and our eternal connection to Him through His Son, Jesus. Yet there are many moments when we don't see any of that, even when it's staring us in the face. Sometimes it's due to self-inflicted wounds like apathy, selfishness, or outright rebellion. But often, I'd argue, the issue is far more subtle, and far more dangerous. We fail to see what's in front of us because of comfort. Comfort comes from many sources, our time, money, heritage, zip code, and resources, and it makes us feel secure. But that very comfort can press us to forget, or even disregard, what we've been called to. When we get too comfortable, we're prone to miss everything God has graciously given us. In Luke 16, the rich man had everything, but he missed the suffering man at his gate and the truth of God's Word. His comfort blinded him to eternal realities. So we ask: • What is the Christian truly called to do in life? • In what ways are we ignoring the commission we've been given? • Who do we overlook or avoid because we assume we're already set for eternity. This week, we'll explore these questions and more.
The Parable of the Dishonest Manager is a perplexing one. Why is a clever defrauder commended for his shrewdness? How is this dishonest manager's swift economic redistribution used to teach Jesus' audience about kinship, faithfulness, and honesty? By using a real-world example, Jesus teaches his listeners about the right use of wealth and business forethought. This parable has more to do with preparing for the future than it does deception. In this passage, Jesus uses a dishonest manager who was likely a slave or freedman, desperate to keep his job, to display the commemorability of acting boldly to secure his financial future. Jesus often draws lessons from sinful or lowly men to create contrast with the prideful elite, and in Luke 16:1–13, we learn from a dishonest manager about the glory of foresight and diligence. This Sunday, we will learn from Phoenix Seminary President, Dr. David Hogg, about how we as Christians can model such an attitude in our own faith journey. The dishonest manager's decisive action in this parable is praiseworthy and points to how Christians ought to be regarding eternal matters.
Across the Great DivideLuke 16:14-31The Village Chapel - 06/15/2025Luke 16 begins with a conversation Jesus has with his disciples about faithfulness with money and righteous stewardship in the kingdom. He continues that conversation with the Pharisees, who are lovers of money and need to be reminded of the sanctity and reverence of God's Law. Jesus tells them a fascinating story of two men and five brothers, separated by a great chasm, both in this life and the next. Join us as we look at how the Law and the kingdom of God intersect, and how the love of Christ carries us across the great divide.To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.

Message from David Wojnicki on June 15, 2025
Heaven and hell- Is the doctrine of hell and eternal punishment biblical? Some people have offered alternative ideas about the afterlife because they struggle with the reality of hell.
Thinking eternally- Many of the Pharisees were consumed with following every part of the law because of the fear of man. They were not thinking about the eternal consequences of their actions. Jesus challenged that thinking by telling the parable of the rich man and Lazarus.
Shrewdness, Stewardship & Submission in the KingdomLuke 16:1-13The Village Chapel - 06/08/2025In the three parables of Jesus in Chapter 15 of Luke's gospel, we saw how precious lost people are to God. The parable of the prodigal son ended with the father explaining to his older son that all the father has already belongs to him. In Chapter 16, Jesus speaks to his disciples about faithfulness with money, a small thing compared to eternal treasure. We are reminded that righteous stewardship begins with the acknowledgement that all we have been given by our Father still belongs to Him and we are accountable for how we use it in His kingdom.To find more resources like these, follow us:Website: https://thevillagechapel.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQVTzDbaiXVUAm_mUBDCTJAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tvcnashville/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tvcnashvilleX: https://twitter.com/tvcnashvilleTo support the ongoing mission of The Village Chapel go to https://thevillagechapel.com/give/.
