Grace: It's Our Way of Life

As Episcopal Christians we
Worship at home daily and together weekly;
Study the Scriptures, our tradition, and what it means to be a disciple today;
Serve our families, our parish, and our world in the name of Christ.

Everything we do is done with an ethic of Welcome
because we are only here by Grace.

Sermon, Proper 24, Year A, 16 Oct 2011 - Growing Up, Paying Taxes and the 10 Commandments


A sermon by the Very Rev. Daniel P. Richards in the series about growing up and bearing the image of God. Our gospel is not primarily about paying taxes, it is about how we give to God that which bears the image of God. The 10 Commandments give us principles on how to do that. They are more than laws; they are deep principles.

Isaiah 45:1-7
Psalm 96:1-9, (10-13)
1 Thessalonians 1:1-10
Matthew 22:15-22

On page 350 of the Book of Common Prayer you will find the Decalogue or 10 Commandments for worship.
