Grumpy About Grace | Pastor Mike Leno
from Azure Hills Seventh-day Adventist Church · host Azure Hills Church
God gives grace extravagantly. He saves the undeserving and gives blessings to both the just and the unjust. It is by God’s grace that we enjoy the blessings of this church--our community of faith. Life in the kingdom of grace—it’s more than any of us deserve! Not everyone, however, is happy about God’s extravagance. Why waste the resources of heaven on those who don’t appreciate it? Why risk offending the faithful by rewarding those who don’t do their part? Jesus told a parable about jealous workers who asked those kinds of questions. Pastor Mike Leno will explore the meaning of Jesus’ parable of the workers in the vineyard (Matthew 20:1-16). Does the message of that parable apply to us today? Let’s find out together.
