Faith in Daily Life

Text: Matthew 25:14-30. When we are faithful in the small things in life, we are on our way to becoming trusted with the larger things.  This principle of Jesus applies to us in the workplace, but in the rest of life also.  The small things in life matter and God can help us do great things from small beginnings.  Bulletin: https://standrewlu.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/010321-90...

Text: Matthew 9:16-17.  The need for us to be faithful as innovators is illustrated by Jesus’ parable of how new wineskins are needed for new wine.  If the new wine is poured into old wineskins, they will burst.  We are called by God to “sing a new song to the Lord.”  This applies not only to our worship, but to our lives as well.

Text: Deuteronomy 6:4-9.  The simplest and smallest reminders of God’s great love for us can make a difference in our homes.  God’s statutes are there for us to make a real difference in our lives so “write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates.” Visit our website: https://standrewlu.org/ To automate your giving on a continued basis or to make a one-time donation: http:...

Text: 1 Corinthians 12:31b-13:1.  More words do not always make for better communication.  The Apostle Paul teaches us that, without love, our communication may only amount to a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.  God often gives us the right words at the right time to leave a lasting impression on people.  The term we hear so often in church, benediction, literally means “good w...
