Daily Dose of Hope July 7, 2025   Scripture - Matthew 22:1-22   Prayer:  Holy God, We come before you this morning in awe of your blessings and love.  Thank you, Lord, for the ways you continue to guide our lives.  Lord, we want more intimacy with you.  We are desperate to know you better.  In these next few moments of silence, Jesus, please speak to us.  We need to hear your voice...  In Your Name, Amen.   Welcome back to the Daily Dose of Hope, a Deep Dive into the Gospels and Acts.  Today is the first day of Vacation Bible School (VBS) at New Hope.  We are expecting close to 200 children.  Please pray for every single child and their families, may they come to know Jesus.   Today, we are starting Matthew 22.  We are starting with the parable of the wedding banquet and it's a hard one.  Let's remember that parables are not meant to be taken literally.  Parables are intended to surprise the audience to make a point.  What can we learn from the Kingdom of God from this parable?  Let's be careful not to make arbitrary links between the text and God.  For instance, the king is like God in some ways, but he is not the same as God.  Also, his son is not Jesus.    This particular parable is somewhat complex and difficult to make sense of.  Why did the king not invite everyone to his banquet from the beginning?  Why did the invited guests reject the king's invitation?  That would have been unheard of in their culture!  And then, the king's violence against the guests who didn't attend does not make a lot of sense.  What is the radical message of this parable?   One possibility is that Jesus is actually continuing the parables of the Two Sons and the Wicked Tenants by making the point that there is nothing more important than doing God's will.  Even though people are called or invited to do God's work, they may neglect or refuse it, consumed with their own needs and self-interest.  But God isn't giving up on his work of saving people and calling others to join him in that task.  The subversive message might be that the position and status of religious leaders, such as the Pharisees, will not last forever.  God is going to achieve his purposes no matter what.  It may mean breaking traditions and doing new things.    And then we have the passage about paying tax to Caesar.  The Jewish leaders are really trying to find a way to trap Jesus.  By this point, they can't stand him and they simply want him out of their way.  He threatens their authority and what they find important.  Thus, they ask him about the poll tax.  We discussed this in Mark too.  This was a flat tax that every person living in the Roman Empire was forced to pay.  To the Jews, it was a reminder that they were far from free.  If Jesus had responded with a positive remark like “yes, definitely pay it!” then he would have turned off a lot of his audience.  If he had said, “don't pay it!” then he would have been seen as turning against Rome, a dangerous thing.  The way that Jesus answered the question blew everyone away!   More tomorrow.   Blessings, Pastor Vicki

Why does Jesus tell a parable where the main characters are both RIGHT and both WRONG? Join me and Scott as we talk all kinds of things: faith, accountability, judgment, mission, and the reality that everyone really KNOWS the Gospel deep down.

Paul uses an illustration from history to explain how we are either a son of slavery or a son of freedom.

This Father's Day, we're exploring one of the most powerful stories Jesus ever told — the parable of the lost son. In Luke 15, we meet three men with three very different hearts: one chasing freedom, one offering reckless grace, and one standing close but cold. No matter where you are — wandering, waiting, or worn down — there's a place for you in God's grace.

Punchline | Two Sons and Tenants | Ethan Magness by First Christian Church

Message from David Wojnicki on June 8, 2025

In the Gospel of Matthew (21:28-32), a father asks his two sons to work in his vineyard. The first son initially refuses but later changes his mind and works. The second son agrees to work but then doesn't. The father's will is done by the first son, who repents and obeys, while the second son, who makes a false commitment, doesn't fulfill it. This parable is used by Jesus to illustrate the difference between hypocrisy and genuine obedience, suggesting that tax collectors and prostitutes might enter the Kingdom of God before those who outwardly profess obedience but lack genuine repentance.

Luke 5:11-32Senior Pastor Nick Sandefur 

Have you ever told God “yes” with your words but “no” with your actions? In The Parable of the Two Sons, Jesus shows us that talk is cheap—but obedience is everything. In this episode, we unpack: ✅ Why God values your actions more than your words ✅ How repentance opens the door for Kingdom purpose ✅ Why it's never too late to say “yes” and follow through ✅ What it means to live with real surrender, not just spiritual performance

Sermon preached by Dr. B.J. Hutto on Sunday, April 6, 2025 at Hendricks Avenue Baptist Church.

March 30, Lent 4: Josh 4:19-5:12; Ps 34; 2 Cor 5:17-21; Luke 15:11-32 (Fr. David Smith, preaching)

This week we will be studying Luke 15:11-32 under the theme “A Parable of Two Sons.” This will be our third straight week hearing Jesus teach on The Banquet. We've heard about a Narrow Door. We've heard about Making Excuses. And now he's teaching about the difference between repentant sinners and self-righteous religious practitioners. We'll explain why the traditional title “The Parable of the Prodigal Son,” which dates back to 16th century English translations and even the Latin Vulgate, is tremendously misleading. This text is as much, or more, about an obedient older brother and how he still stands outside the banquet.How can we pray for you? tinyurl.com/stmarcusprayersFill out our online connection card: tinyurl.com/stmarcusconnectcardIf you'd like to leave an offering or monetary donation to our ministry please click here: https://tinyurl.com/stmarcusgive

The father's house in the first century Jewish world was a picture of security, provision, stability and love. It is the central point of all the activity in the story Jesus is telling in Luke 15. The youngest son leaves and returns to the father's house and the party that is thrown, the one the older son refuses to join, is held at the father's house. In this story Jesus reveals the heart of God our Father and we have the opportunity to ask ourselves, “Who do I identify with? The younger son or the older son?”  

A Tale of Two SonsSeries: The Lectionary Preacher: Rev. Jeff SimpsonDate: 30th March 2025Passage: Luke 15:11-24

In this sermon, we explore the timeless Parable of the Two Sons from Luke 15, a story that reveals the relentless, seeking love of our Heavenly Father for all his children. This love is certain whether the children have wandered far in reckless pursuit of freedom or remained close yet lost in self-righteousness. Through the younger son's descent into the pig sty and the older son's resentment in the fields, we uncover how God runs to meet us wherever we are, offering forgiveness, restoration, and a place in His celebration. Pastor Schroeder's sermon preached at Faith on March 30, 2025.Intro/Outro Music: “Depth of Field” by David Hilowitz

II Corinthians 5:7-21; Luke 15:11-32; prodigal; reckless love
