What Are You Doing With Your Talent?

Last week Pastor Larry talked with us from the parable of the wise and foolish bridesmaids. We concluded that we need to be alert .... be awake...be prepared.

This week Pastor Arlin will reach into the parable of the talents (Matthew 25:14-30). He will help us examine the talents we have and how we can use them to "enhance the lives of others." He will help us see that the more we use our talents, the more we also benefit. You will be able to ask yourself what you are doing with your talent.

On the 23rd, Pastor Larry will follow up with the parable of the judgement. This will be the final sermon in our series of looking at the parables. It will challenge us to see that when we use our talents to help other, we grow spiritually and are actually serving Jesus.

Please read this week's scripture several times. Read it alone. Read it with your family. Pray and ask God to help you be prepared to receive the blessing.
