Repentance and the Patient Gardener | Rev. Michael Fredericks

Repentance and the Patient Gardener | Rev. Michael Fredericks

Jesus receives breaking news that a group of Galileans was murdered in the Temple by political operatives of Pilate. How Jesus responds is surprising - drawing us in to a reminder of the necessity of repentance, not presuming on God's grace, and being prepared for death. But what of us who fail sometimes to produce 'fruit in keeping with repentance'... does God cut us down and cast us away? This message explores the parable of the barren fig tree and the patient gardener who gives us more time to grow - until time runs out! Luke 13:1-9 Rev.

The Good Samaritan -- Who Is My Neighbour? | Rev. Michael Fredericks

What does it really mean to love your neighbour? In the parable of the Good Samaritan, Jesus challenges our ideas about who deserves our love — and reveals something even deeper about the grace of God. The religious expert asks Jesus, “What must I do to inherit eternal life?” Jesus’ answer exposes our inability to save ourselves through good works and points us to the love of God that moves toward us when we are helpless.
