The Older Son | A Man Had Two Sons | Drew Ritchie by The Hills Church

The Younger Son | A Man Had Two Sons | Drew Ritchie by The Hills Church

In the middle of the celebration for Isaac, the child of promise, a deep-seated fracture surfaces within Abraham's household. This message explores the "Tale of Two Sons"—Isaac, born of promise, and Ishmael, born of the flesh—to reveal the spiritual danger of trying to keep your own "back-up plans" alongside God's divine purpose. Discover why you cannot raise the work of the flesh and the work of the Spirit in the same tent, and learn how to discern the influences that may be holding you back from your true inheritance.

Promises, promises. Have you ever made a promise you didn't keep? Do you do what you say? Today, we will see the way Jesus describes the priests and Pharisees. They know all the right things to say but their lives aren't always consistent. Please read Matthew 21:28-32

In this special Bible study presentation, Dr. Bill Grady examines the modern controversies surrounding the nation of Israel through the lens of Scripture and God's everlasting covenant promises to Abraham. Drawing from Romans 11 and the teachings of both the Old and New Testaments, Dr. Grady explores God's continuing purposes for Israel and the certainty of His prophetic word.A central theme of this study is the powerful illustration of the prodigal son. Dr. Grady demonstrates how both sons in the parable—the rebellious younger son and the self-righteous elder brother—ultimately point to God's redemptive purposes, illustrating the biblical truth that one day both Jew and Gentile believers will rejoice together in the Father's house.This message addresses important questions concerning Israel's present condition, God's covenant faithfulness, the relationship between Israel and the Church, and the hope of future restoration promised throughout Scripture. Whether you are studying biblical prophecy, Romans 11, or God's unfolding plan of redemption, this lesson offers a thoughtful and Scripture-centered perspective on one of the Bible's most significant themes.

The Two Sons | Toby by Door of Hope Christian Church

Episode Title: The Parable of the Two Sons: Brother Mike delivers an uncompromising message on the Parable of the Two Sons. Speaking from Phoenix, Arizona, he takes aim at the modern trap of religious lip service, contrasting it with the raw, messy reality of true repentance. Through the lens of clinical counseling—introducing the concept of "behavior modification"—and an examination of original New Testament Greek terms, Brother Mike maps out what it actually means to do the Father's will. Whether you are a long-time believer dealing with silent conviction or someone who feels they have completely failed their calling, this episode offers a clear path to reboot, reinvigorate, and walk out a modified call from God. Key Takeaways True Repentance Demands Action: Genuine spiritual conviction is never just an emotional or attitude shift. In clinical counseling terms, true repentance must always manifest as active behavior modification. The Dangerous Illusion of Lip Service: The second son sounded highly respectful, yet completely failed to act. God values an imperfect path that finishes strong over flawless, polite words that lead to zero obedience. The "Bottom Line" Contrast: A look at monumental failures in scripture—comparing Peter and Judas. While both faltered dramatically, Peter's trajectory was defined by his decision to repent and return. Scripture References Highlighted Matthew 21:28-32 – The central Parable of the Two Sons and Christ's radical declaration that reformed tax collectors (telonus) and outcasts enter the Kingdom ahead of the religious elite.

Luke 15 reminds us that the parable of the lost son is really about two lost sons and one loving Father. The younger son was lost through rebellion, while the older son was lost through pride and religious performance. Both were far from the Father's heart, yet the Father pursued them with grace, showing that God's love isn't earned by good behavior or lost through failure. The gospel invites us to come home and rest in the truth that nothing can make God love us more or less.

Galatians 3:1-14

In this episode, we push on to Luke 15:11-32, where we read the parable of the prodigal son. As we work through the parable we identify the different individuals within the story, the repentant son, the reckless father, and the resentful son, and talk through how each of them resonate with us. As we discuss the older son, we identify our propensity to reflect him rather than the father in our willingness to forgive and seek restoration with those around us. Our invitation and challenge is to forgive and restore extravagantly, just as the father of the parable does, just as Jesus does.

Please SUBSCRIBE to my YouTube channel: The Tale of Two Sons: Spiritual Lessons from Karmelo Anthony's StoryOn September 6, 1987, Dr. Benjamin Carson did something that 23 other doctors had not been able to do. He led a team of medical professionals who successfully separated twins who were conjoined at the back of their heads. The same hands that had performed a medical miracle had also been used to commit violent acts. Dr. Carson said in his autobiography, "Gifted Hands" that he had stabbed one of his classmates when he was a teen. By the grace of God, the blade hit a metal belt buckle and did no harm. However, after this incident, Dr. Carson reflected on how his life could have gone in another direction if his classmate had been hurt or injured. After deep reflection, he began to read the book of Proverbs in the Bible which helped him learn how to manage negative emotions. This episode discusses what we need to teach young people to minimize or stop Karmelo Anthony's story from happening again.

Galatians | Galatians 4:21-32 | Chipper Flaniken

We welcome Darryl G. Hart back to Christ the Center to discuss Protestants and Patriots: Presbyterians in the Age of Revolution, published by the University of Notre Dame Press. Hart traces the transatlantic story of Presbyterianism from the Reformation through the age of revolutions, asking why Presbyterian polity so often became a political irritant in Britain, Ireland, North America, and beyond. The conversation ranges from Calvin's Geneva and the French Reformed connection to the Scottish Covenanters, the English civil wars, John Witherspoon, the American founding, the 1788 revision of the Westminster Confession, and contemporary debates over Christian nationalism. Along the way, Hart helps us see how questions of church government, civil authority, establishment, liberty, and public memory are bound up with the church's confession that Christ alone is head of his church.

Parenting is no easy task, and when it comes to raising children to live out their dreams in connection with God's vision for their lives, the challenge may seem overwhelming. That's where Shelia Erwin's ministry becomes essential. She is the founder and president of Raising Dreamers Ministries, and the author of Raising Up Dreamers: Find and Grow Your Child's God-Given Talent. With decades of ministry work and mentoring experience, Shelia shares in-depth wisdom about how she raised her two extraordinarily talented sons, Jon and Andrew Erwin. Audiences are likely familiar with the brothers' productions, such as the blockbuster movies I Can Only Imagine, I Can Only Imagine 2, TV series House of David, Jesus Revolution, etc. Shelia reflects on how she and her husband Hank dedicated their boys to the Lord even before they were born, how she cultivated her parenting style, and how she continuously trusted in the Lord. TAKEAWAYS Young mothers should watch other moms and see what works and what doesn't work when it comes to teaching their children There is no such thing as a perfect parent - everyone makes mistakes The book of Titus instructs older women to train and instruct younger women in the church Christians shouldn't be inferior to the world; they should be SUPERIOR and only Jesus can change your child's heart

The Tale Of Two Sons (Genesis 1-11)

Elder Jeff KirkSunday May 31, 2026Luke 15:11-32

Today, Will Carlisle is joined by Becky Matthews as we continue our study through the book of Galatians. Join us today on Our Daily Rhythm!

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.

Sermon by Christopher Atkins on May 24, 2026. 

This week we look at the Parable of the Two Sons and discover how Jesus calls for obedience.

The Holy One of Israel Isaiah's Two Sons

Hope Presbyterian Church is a new church in New Braunfels, TX, seeking to take the good news of Jesus Christ to this historic and growing city. We meet every Sunday at 10 at New Braunfels Christian Academy, 995 Mission Hills Drive, New Braunfels 78130. Come join us!

Matthew 20:20-28

The sermon draws a powerful theological contrast between two covenants—represented by Abraham's sons Ishmael and Isaac—using Galatians 4 to illustrate that true freedom comes not from human effort or adherence to religious rituals, but from faith alone in Christ alone. It reveals that the Mosaic covenant, symbolized by Hagar and Mount Sinai, produces bondage, while the covenant of promise, represented by Sarah and the Jerusalem that is and comes from above, brings spiritual freedom through grace. The preacher emphasizes that believers, like Isaac, are children of the promise, not of the flesh, and must reject any attempt to add human works to faith in Christ in their justification before God, in the form of religious traditions or imperfect works of obedience. The application challenges Christians to recognize that true freedom is found in surrendering to Christ's lordship, not in self-directed autonomy, and that serving Christ is not bondage but the highest form of liberation, marked by joy, purpose, and eternal significance.

Luke 15:1-3, 11-32

Grief is something every single one of us will experience, but most of us don’t know how to talk about it, process it, or move through it. Marcia Earhart, founder of Sterling Rose Sanctuary, shares her deeply personal story of losing both of her sons and how that unimaginable pain led her to help others heal. Morgan & Marcia talk about why grief looks different for everyone, the connection between grief, trauma, and mental health, how families can stay connected through loss, the idea of “incorporating” grief instead of being consumed by it, and why we grieve more moments in life than we realize.
