In the parable of the Rich Fool Christ challenges the greedy heart to consider that riches on Earth can't compare to riches in Heaven.

Our guest speaker today was Ari Hauben of Chosen People Ministries. The sermon begins with a video of Ari's story of finding the Messiah in Jesus. He tells his story of how the message of atonement took on new meaning when he learned that Jesus was "The Lamb of God" that took away the sins of the world -- that Jesus was "The" Passover Lamb of annual Passover celebration.

The "Lost" parable communicates the grace of God in a beautiful way. None of the characters in the story -- the sheep, the coin, the younger son and the older son -- deserved what they received. But God gives not because of merit but because of deep abiding love.

The key to great love is understanding the great forgiveness we've received. The parable of the two debtors is a beautiful example of gratitude and worship.

Jesus, the master teacher, taught service and sacrifice to his disciples. Paul wrote about his example -- an example highlighted on the cross.

Among many great points in this session Bob speaks about challenging the mental maps in our thinking that keep us in captivity in our thinking and limits us from seeing the full story line of the Bible. He also introduced us to the Hebrew word "avodah" which is used for work and worship.

Each person in your life right now is someone God has put there for eternal purposes. God is so intentional! In addition to living as 'sent' people, Pastor Tim also speaks about how resolving conflict with each other is attractive to a watching world.
