The Business of Heaven | Soul Calling | Part 5 We are deep into our sermon series, Soul Calling, where we’re exploring Jesus’ teaching through the parables. Today, we were in Matthew 21:33-44, where in the last week of His life, Jesus shares the parable of the tenants. We see a vineyard owner intentionally investing in his business — tilling the ground, planting seeds, digging a winepress, and building a watchtower. After renting the land to farmers, he sends his servants to collect the fruit, but they are met with hostility and greed for the farmers intended to reap the harvest for themselves. Jesus delivers a sobering truth: “Therefore I tell you that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people who produce its fruit.” (v. 43) We are called to live a Kingdom life in partnership with God. We are called to work alongside Him with joy — sharing in His vision and plan for redemption. We are invited into His mission — serving Him and bearing fruit. Do we see it that way? Senior Pastor David Dwight challenged us to examine our vision of life with God. Do we ask what God does for us or what we do for God?
