Old habits die hard, so later, when my wife and I stopped by the airport to pick up a fellow pastor and&#8230;&#160;<a href="https://lutheranspokesman.org/2024/11/01/the-ten-virgins/" rel="bookmark"><span class="screen-reader-text">THE TEN VIRGINS</span></a>]]></description>

Online media providers know exactly what to promise the public to draw them in. &#8220;Don&#8217;t miss the shocking conclusion&#8221; is especially effective bait in that it not only compels the public to bite, it encourages that visitor to chew longer&#8212;increasing something known as &#8220;session duration.&#8221; Online income is directly related&#8230;&#160;<a href="https://lutheranspokesman.org/2024/10/01/the-marriage-of-the-kings-son/" rel="bookmark"><span class="screen-reader-text">THE MARRIAGE OF THE KING&#8217;S SON</span></a>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[A sense of entitlement is a corrosive cancer which blinds the soul to the goodness of our Lord and leads to a wide range of sin. In the Parable of the Wicked Vinedressers (Mathew 21:33-46), the tenants&#8217; assumption of squatting rights results in manifest murder. Fully furnished with wall, tower, and winepress, the landowner has&#8230;&#160;<a href="https://lutheranspokesman.org/2024/09/01/the-wicked-vinedressers/" rel="bookmark"><span class="screen-reader-text">THE WICKED VINEDRESSERS</span></a>]]></description>

A man had two sons, and he came to the first and said, &#8220;Son, go, work today in my vineyard.&#8221; He answered and said, &#8220;I will not,&#8221; but afterward he regretted it and went.

					<description><![CDATA[Before reading on, take a moment to read the Parable of the Laborers in the Vineyard in its entirety (Matthew 20:1-16). Having done so, can you determine the singular truth that your Savior was communicating in the parable? If your answer is &#8220;Salvation is by grace alone&#8221; you would, of course, be right. Yet if&#8230;&#160;<a href="https://lutheranspokesman.org/2024/07/01/the-laborers-in-the-vineyard/" rel="bookmark"><span class="screen-reader-text">THE LABORERS IN THE VINEYARD</span></a>]]></description>

In the kingdom of heaven, nothing is valued more than the simplicity of a child, so it is wicked to offend such souls; also, as a shepherd covers hill and dale&#8230;&#160;<a href="https://lutheranspokesman.org/2024/06/01/the-unmerciful-servant/" rel="bookmark"><span class="screen-reader-text">THE UNMERCIFUL SERVANT</span></a>]]></description>
