Stories from the Vineyard

Israel was created to work in the vineyard. Israel was given sonship and all of its privileges. Israel was given all the tools, all the know-how and instructions, and Israel was even given the vineyard itself. They had everything.  And Israel said to the Owner of the vineyard, “Yes, everything you said we will obey.” But they did not.

But what about us?

Pastor Chris taught on the two parables about vineyards that Jesus told, and then he he shared one vineyard kind of story from his own personal history.

What do you want to do with the rest of your life? There’s a great big vineyard surrounding you— right now, right here, in this place, in this time. Let's go get busy with the tasks the Owner has given us.
