Description
This sermon unpacks Luke 16 by connecting the parable of the dishonest manager to the prodigal son, showing Jesus’ shocking critique of the Pharisees and his invitation to trust God’s character. Rather than a moral license to lie, the story urges sinners to bind God to His promises and receive mercy through Christ’s merits.
It calls believers to rely on God’s promises in baptism and the sacraments, to live sacrificially for others, and to hold Jesus to his word as the source of eternal hope.
