The Cost of Love

In this message on Matthew 20:1-15, Pastor Jim draws our attention to how Jesus uses a parable about the workers in the vineyard to explain what the Kingdom of God (or Heaven) is like. Yet again, Jesus tells his closest disciples that God is quite different from what they may have been taught to think about God. Views that they may have learned from their religious leaders and heard through "God stories" from family, friends and local community members. A parable which declares in a vivid way how God is completely good. How God’s love is constant and enduring. How our relationship with God is never based on our performance. How God’s actions reveal God’s love for you!
