Education at Emmanuel
LECTIONARY PLUS: Prepare for Worship This Sunday.
This Sunday, we will explore Amos 8:4-7, where Amos speaks out against injustice in Israel, and Luke 16:1-13, the parable of the unjust manager. What is Jesus teaching us through these passages? How are we called to love?
Pastor Lillejord will challenge us to consider our priorities: if we followed “Team Jesus” with the same passion as our favorite sports team, would we be more faithful disciples? If we invested in our marriages and friendships as much as we do for work promotions, how might our relationships grow?
Watch the vidJoin us this Sunday to hear the sermon where we will listen and reflect on these meaningful scriptures.
