The 9th Sunday after Pentecost; Luke 12:32–40

Published in Gerry Mueller, Sermons on August 7, 2022

The Gospel for this day seems to consist of two almost unconnected parts. For the first few verses you might think I ought to be up here wearing a Happy Face Smiley T-shirt!

Sunday, July 10, 2022 Amos 7:7-17 Luke 10:25-37 I saw online (before the Rogers outage) someone asked if there was anything new to say about the Parable of the Good Samaritan. I don’t know if it was meant as [inquisitively:] “is there anything new to say about the Good Samaritan?” or [exasperatedly:] “is there anything […]
