Pastor Jonathan used this parable in Luke 16 to how ways we should and should not be like the shrewd manager.

Jesus uses this parable in Luke 18 to show the disciples to always pray and never give up.

In the  Parable of the Fig Tree recorded in Luke 13, the man who took care of the vineyard implored the owner of the vineyard to allow him to tend to the fig tree so that it might have more time to produce fruit. The vineyard owner symbolizes God; the man who took care of the vineyard symbolizes Jesus that advocates for us, symbolized by the fig tree.

Dr. Tim Johnson, Executive Director of the Bradley Study Center, continued our sermon series on the parables of Jesus. Dr. Johnson used Luke 13 to illustrate that following Christ is a fight that requires work but we must know Him or we will be separated from God for eternity.

The Bradley Study Center is a center for Christian thought and life at Virginia Tech.

In Luke 15, Jesus uses the parable of the lost sheep to illustrate spiritual lostness. Like the shepherd who pursues the lost sheep, Jesus is always pursuing us.

Scott preaches on the Parable of the Lost Son (or Sons), and what it means for us and our relationship with Christ.

Like the unmerciful servant from Matthew 18: 21-35, we have been forgiven of a massive debt we could never repay by God. Our treatment of others is an indication of whether or not we have truly understood and accepted God's forgiveness.

Chris Meckley discussed the common interpretation of Matthew 25:31-46 emphasizing works as a path to salvation which cannot be correct. However, a the true purpose of this passage is to iterate that Jesus will come again to judge the living and the dead.

Jonathan began our new sermon series, Parables of Jesus - Radical Obedience for the Real World, with the Parable of the Good Samaritan from Luke 10:25-37.

Chris Meckley focused on I Corinthians 2:2 and how are lives are changed by what Jesus did for us on the cross.
