One of the most difficult of Jesus' parables to grasp comes in Luke 16, where He told his disciples a story about a shrewd money manager.
Luke 16:1-13 "Jesus told his disciples: “There was a rich man whose manager was accused of wasting his possessions. So he called him in and asked him, ‘What is this I hear about you? Give an account of your management, because you cannot be manager any longer.' “The manager said to himself, ‘What shall I do now? My master is taking away my job. I'm not strong enough to dig, and I'm ashamed to beg— I know what I'll do so that, when I lose my job here, people will welcome me into their houses.' “So he called in each one of his master's debtors. He asked the first, ‘How much do you owe my master?' “‘Nine hundred gallons of olive oil,' he replied. “The manager told him, ‘Take your bill, sit down quickly, and make it four hundred and fifty.' “Then he asked the second, ‘And how much do you owe?' “‘A thousand bushels of wheat,' he replied. “He told him, ‘Take your bill and make it eight hundred.' “The master commended the dishonest manager because he had acted shrewdly. For the people of this world are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind than are the people of the light. I tell you, use worldly wealth to gain friends for yourselves, so that when it is gone, you will be welcomed into eternal dwellings. “Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much. So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches? And if you have not been trustworthy with someone else's property, who will give you property of your own? “No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.”

Are you more concerned with money and this world or God and eternity? We will explain the difference and help you know which side you are on.
The talk from our morning service on 8th October 2023.
The story from today's passage often gets ignored. Why? Because it depicts a wasteful and unrighteous manager, on the cusp of being fired, acting “shrewdly” to the detriment of his employer…yet his employer commends him. What? How can such a guy get praised? How can such a character be exemplified by Jesus within his teaching? Questions Are you quick to believe God is a “debt reliever” and “burden lifter”? Have our non-Christian friends, family, and coworkers heard the good news that God is a “debt reliever” and “burden lifter”?

This is the seventh sermon in our series on The Parables of Jesus. Parables are stories or sayings Jesus used to illustrate a point about himself, us, and/or his kingdom and to provoke a response from the hearer. They were instrumental in his ministry and are important for us today. In this message, Pastor Aaron Shamp teaches us about the parable of the shrewd manager using Luke 16:1-13.
Wes McAdams and today's guest, Luke Dockery, discuss the meaning of Jesus' parable of the shrewd, dishonest, or unjust manager from Luke 16:1-13. What does Jesus mean by commending a dishonest or shrewd man? What does Jesus mean when he says, "Make friends for yourselves by means of unrighteous wealth" (Luke 16:9)? Is Jesus being ironic or is Jesus teaching us how we should use money? Wes and Luke discuss both possibilities. Special thanks to John Shipley, one of our listeners, who submitted this question for discussion. The post Jesus’ Parable of the Shrewd Manager (Luke 16:1-13) appeared first on Radically Christian.

Learn from the Shrewd Manager (Luke 16:1-15) how to make friends who will receive you into eternal dwellings.
From the very beginning, human beings have been called as stewards, cultivators, overseers of God's beautiful world. We haven't always taken that responsibility seriously, often turning our calling into domination rather than cultivation. Jesus invites us to remember our calling. The Parable of the Shrewd Manager (Luke 16), is sometimes called Jesus' most difficult parable. It's about money, but it's actually about much more than money. It shows us something about our responsibility to care for the world, not placing unreasonable barriers or restrictions on those who seek to enter the kingdom of God. We are reminded that God desires all that we are, but not more than that. Because of the love of Christ, we are not hopelessly indebted. God wants our hearts, for us to surrender to His kingship in Jesus, and he meets us where we are with his love, inviting us on the path of deeper life. This Sunday, we explore this idea of stewardship, cultivation, blessing, and the "Bare Essentials" of the gospel.

Jesus encourages us to be as innocent as doves but as shrewd as snakes (Matt. 10:16). We'll see this week that this is certainly true when it comes to our wealth as well. The Bible commends us for using the brains God blesses with us as well as for investing in things that last. In our final JUST TO SEE week, we'll look at the story of The Shrewd Manager (Luke 16:1-15).
