Jesus said to them, “Have you never read in the scriptures:

‘The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; this was the Lord’s doing, and it is amazing in our eyes’?”

Matthew 21:42

On Sunday, we will hear a parable from Jesus which seems to predict his rejection by the religious leaders and the people.

He tells the story of the landowner who leases out his fields to workers and at harvest time, sends his servants to collect his portion.

The fieldworkers reject, beat, and kill the servants.

Jesus’ message is that what humans reject, God will build upon.

God can take rejection and build a kingdom, bring hope to despair, and healing to brokenness.

Through Christ we have the promise of life and we are called to bear the fruit of righteousness.

Join us Sunday!
