Sermon: Faithful with What is Not Yours

Welcome to today’s sermon: Faithful with What is Not Yours (Luke 16:1–15). In this powerful message for the Fifteenth Sunday after Pentecost (Proper 20, Series C), Pastor David Balla unpacks one of Jesus’ most puzzling parables—the dishonest manager. What does it mean to be a faithful steward of what ultimately belongs to God? This Christ-centered sermon emphasizes that everything we have—time, talents, treasure, even life itself—is entrusted to us by the Lord, not owned by us.

Discover how Jesus Christ is the perfect Steward in our place: He bore our sin, our debt, and even our death on the cross, that we may inherit eternal dwellings. Through Word and Sacrament, especially the Lord’s Supper, Christ entrusts His very presence to His people, equipping us for faithful living.

If you’re looking for Lutheran preaching, Bible-based teaching, and practical applications of Scripture, this sermon will encourage, challenge, and point you to the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
