Sermons For Month of October
The Questions Jesus Asked
Oct 5, 2025
Week 5: A Question about Worship
Big Idea: This is the story of Mary anointing Jesus’ feet with perfume. This simple gesture of personal worship caused several in the room to be offended, which prompts Jesus’ question, “Why are you bothering her?” Something about this act caused Jesus to say, “Wherever the gospel is preached throughout the world, what she has done will also be told, in memory of her.”

Week 6: A Question about Grace
Big Idea: This is the story of the Eleventh Hour Workers. It ends with the
owner asking the other workers, “Or are you envious because I am generous?” The
incident becomes a marvelous illustration of God’s extravagant generosity, which we call Grace.

Week 7: A Question about Faith
Big Idea: In the parable of The Persistent Widow, Jesus closes with the question, “However, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?”
What Jesus seems to want most from us is that we trust him… All the way to the very end.
Oct 26, 2025
Week 8: A Question about Understanding
Big Idea: In the familiar story of Jesus’ conversation with Nicodemus, the Pharisee expresses much confusion about the expression, “born again.” Jesus asks him, “You are Israel’s teacher, and do you not understand these things?… I have spoken to you of earthly things and you do not believe; how then will you believe if I speak of heavenly things?” What follows is a wonderful opportunity to revisit what it really means to be born again.
The Wesley Covenant Prayer
I am no longer my own, but yours.
Put me to what you will, place me with whom you will.
Put me to doing, put me to suffering.
Let me be put to work for you or set aside for you,
Praised for you or criticized for you.
Let me be full, let me be empty.
Let me have all things, let me have nothing.
I freely and fully surrender all things to your glory and service.
And now, O wonderful and holy God,
Creator, Redeemer, and Sustainer,
you are mine, and I am yours.
So be it.
And the covenant which I have made on earth,
Let it also be made in heaven.
Amen.
