The Parable of the Vineyard

The Parable of the Vineyard (or of the Tenants) that Jesus tells is in response to the religious leaders questioning His authority in the previous chapter.  The parable is violent and ends in death and destruction. Why did I volunteer to preach this section?  How am I going to relate it to 2025?  Come this week and hear about three main themes: Temple, Authority, and Commitment and see how they relate to your life!
