Stewardship

Matthew 20:9 – “And when those hired about the eleventh hour came, each of them received a denarius.” That’s not what they were expecting! The generosity of God is surprising because we are often so tightfisted. But the Lord gives out of His grace, better than we could deserve or even hope for. Living a godly life means living in imitation of God — and surely one of the foundations of God’s being is His surprising generosity. How is the Lord calling you to generous living in His image?


Life Message

“I love reminding them that the first diagnosis is, ‘It’s a baby,’ and no other diagnosis ever negates diagnosis number one. The baby is inherently valuable and worthy of our love.” Dr. Robin Pierucci – A Life Quote from Lutherans For Life - A Life Quote from Lutherans For Life www.lutheransforlife.org
