    [Jesus said:] 33 "Listen to another parable. There was a landowner who planted a vineyard, put a fence  around it, dug a winepress in it, and built a watchtower. Then he leased it to tenants and went  away. 34 When the harvest time had come, he sent his slaves to the tenants to collect his produce. 35 But  the tenants seized his slaves and beat one, killed another, and stoned another. 36 Again he sent other  slaves, more than the first, and they treated them in the same way. 37 Then he sent his son to them,  saying, 'They will respect my son.' 38 But when the tenants saw the son, they said to themselves, 'This is  the heir; come, let us kill him and get his inheritance.' 39 So they seized him, threw him out of the  vineyard, and killed him. 40 Now when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those  tenants?" 41 They said to him, "He will put those wretches to a miserable death and lease the vineyard to  other tenants who will give him the produce at the harvest time."  42 Jesus said to them, "Have you never read in the scriptures:  'The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone;  this was the Lord's doing, and it is amazing in our eyes'?  43 "Therefore I tell you, the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people that  produces its fruits. 44 The one who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, and it will crush anyone on  whom it falls."  45 When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they realized that he was speaking  about them. 46 They wanted to arrest him, but they feared the crowds, because they regarded him as a  prophet.

    On the last day of the festival, the great day, while Jesus was standing there, he cried out, "Let  anyone who is thirsty come to me, 38 and let the one who believes in me drink. As the scripture has said,  'Out of the believer's heart shall flow rivers of living water'.

    38 Then some of the scribes and Pharisees said to him, "Teacher, we wish to see a sign from  you." 39 But he answered them, "An evil and adulterous generation asks for a sign, but no sign will be  given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. 40 For just as Jonah was three days and three nights in the  belly of the sea monster, so for three days and three nights the Son of Man will be in the heart of the  earth.

    9-9-2026 - John 3:1-16 by Pastor Beth Ann

    1Now there was a Pharisee named Nicodemus, a leader of the Jews. 2 He came to Jesus by night and  said to him, "Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God, for no one can do these  signs that you do unless God is with that person." 3 Jesus answered him, "Very truly, I tell you, no one can  see the kingdom of God without being born from above." 4 Nicodemus said to him, "How can anyone be  born after having grown old? Can one enter a second time into the mother's womb and be born?" 5 Jesus  answered, "Very truly, I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God without being born of water and  Spirit. 6 What is born of the flesh is flesh, and what is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7 Do not be astonished that  I said to you, 'You must be born from above.' 8 The wind blows where it chooses, and you hear the sound  of it, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the  Spirit." 9 Nicodemus said to him, "How can these things be?" 10 Jesus answered him, "Are you the  teacher of Israel, and yet you do not understand these things?  11 "Very truly, I tell you, we speak of what we know and testify to what we have seen, yet you do not  receive our testimony. 12 If I have told you about earthly things and you do not believe, how can you  believe if I tell you about heavenly things? 13 No one has ascended into heaven except the one who  descended from heaven, the Son of Man. 14 And just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so  must the Son of Man be lifted up, 15 that whoever believes in him may have eternal life.  16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not  perish but may have eternal life.

    21 From that time on, [after Peter confessed that Jesus was the Messiah,] Jesus began to show his  disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and undergo great suffering at the hands of the elders and chief  priests and scribes and be killed and on the third day be raised. 22 And Peter took him aside and began to  rebuke him, saying, "God forbid it, Lord! This must never happen to you." 23 But he turned and said to  Peter, "Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me, for you are setting your mind not on divine  things but on human things."  24 Then Jesus told his disciples, "If any wish to come after me, let them deny themselves and take up  their cross and follow me. 25 For those who want to save their life will lose it, and those who lose their life  for my sake will find it. 26 For what will it profit them if they gain the whole world but forfeit their life? Or  what will they give in return for their life?  27 "For the Son of Man is to come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will repay  everyone for what has been done. 28 Truly I tell you, there are some standing here who will not taste death  before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom."

    Now when Jesus came into the district of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, "Who do people  say that the Son of Man is?" And they said, "Some say John the Baptist but others Elijah and still others  Jeremiah or one of the prophets."  He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?" Simon Peter answered, "You are the Messiah, the  Son of the living God." And Jesus answered him, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah! For flesh and  blood has not revealed this to you but my Father in heaven.  And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this  rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it. I will give you the keys of  the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose  on earth will be loosed in heaven." Then he sternly ordered the disciples not to tell anyone that he was  the Messiah.

    August 16, 2026 - Matthew 15:10-28 by Pastor Nathan Pratt

    10 [Jesus] called the crowd to him and said to them, "Listen and understand:11 it is not what goes into the mouth that defiles a person, but it is what comes out of the mouth that defiles." 12 Then the disciples approached and said to him, "Do you know that the Pharisees took offense when they heard what you said?" 13 He answered, "Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted will be uprooted. 14 Let them alone; they are blind guides of the blind. And if one blind person guides another, both will fall into a pit." 15 But Peter said to him, "Explain this parable to us." 16 Then he said, "Are you also still without understanding? 17 Do you not see that whatever goes into the mouth enters the stomach and goes out into the sewer? 18 But what comes out of the mouth proceeds from the heart, and this is what defiles. 19 For out of the heart come evil intentions, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false witness, slander. 20 These are what defile a person, but to eat with unwashed hands does not defile."   21 Jesus left that place and went away to the district of Tyre and Sidon. 22 Just then a Canaanite woman from that region came out and started shouting, "Have mercy on me, Lord, Son of David; my daughter is tormented by a demon." 23 But he did not answer her at all. And his disciples came and urged him, saying, "Send her away, for she keeps shouting after us." 24 He answered, "I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel." 25 But she came and knelt before him, saying, "Lord, help me." 26 He answered, "It is not fair to take the children's food and throw it to the dogs." 27 She said, "Yes, Lord, yet even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their masters' table." 28 Then Jesus answered her, "Woman, great is your faith! Let it be done for you as you wish." And her daughter was healed from that moment.

    August 2, 2026 – Matthew 14:13-21 – by Pastor Nathan Pratt

    13 Now when Jesus heard [about the beheading of John the Baptist,] he withdrew from there in a boat to a deserted place by himself. But when the crowds heard it, they followed him on foot from the towns. 14 When he went ashore, he saw a great crowd, and he had compassion for them and cured their sick. 15 When it was evening, the disciples came to him and said, "This is a deserted place, and the hour is now late; send the crowds away so that they may go into the villages and buy food for themselves." 16 Jesus said to them, "They need not go away; you give them something to eat." 17 They replied, "We have nothing here but five loaves and two fish." 18 And he said, "Bring them here to me." 19 Then he ordered the crowds to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish, he looked up to heaven and blessed and broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds. 20 And all ate and were filled, and they took up what was left over of the broken pieces, twelve baskets full. 21 And those who ate were about five thousand men, besides women and children.
