Sermon Title: Authentic Treasure

(Isaiah 43:1-7, Matthew 13:33, Matthew 13:44, Matthew 13:45)

Rev. Erik Kindem, November 19, 2017

Quick Summary:

The featured painting at Christie’s auction house recently, had an opening bid of $100 million dollars. But by the time the gavel came down, that figure had risen to over 4½ times that amount, making the purchase, at $450.3 million dollars, the highest price ever paid at auction for a work of art. Who the buyer is, no one yet knows.

But IS it a Leonardo—and how can we know for certain?

In this two part series on stewardship, we reflect on the question: What are we formed for? We use St. Paul's teaching from 2 Corinthians 4: "We are the gospel treasure in the clay jars of our lives."

Three parables of Jesus from Matthew 13 invite us into seeing the inner workings of God's reign. Could the priceless treasure for which God searches be us?
