DisciplesNet Worship #803 Proper 20- (Nirmal 09.21.2025)

To watch this worship service on YouTube, click here.

Pastor Rahul speaks to us from Luke 16:1-13, the parable of the Dishonest Manager. This is a difficult parable to understand. Is Jesus saying that the manager did well by defrauding his master? Pastor Rahul helps us navigate the twists and turns of the parable and help us to better understand the Realm of God.
Join us for just over 27 minutes of worship, prayer, scripture, a number of favorite hymns, and communion. You may choose to participate or simply meditate as we tell of Jesus' invitation to "do this in remembrance of me." If you would like to share with us at the table that goes beyond earthly boundaries of time, place, and structure, we ask that you prepare a piece of bread of some type and a drink such as grape juice, wine, or water. As we pray, our prayers extend to where you are. If you are unable to eat or drink, you may want to use a symbolic gesture or mental symbol as you come together at this table of remembrance with us.
