The sermon explores our attitudes toward teh crises inour lives -either a goat attitude or a sheep attitude.  Christ our King is calling us to be his flock so he can be our good shepherd.

The sermon explores how God's Grace is the abundance that we are so freely offered.  The question is, how do we respond to the abundance offered?  By investing it, or by burying it in a hole?

The sermon explores an urgent word from Jesus to "be ready!"  The ten bridesmaids teach us that being ready to meet God means taking time to connect with God. 

The sermon explored the human impulse to celebrate - as in the Phillies celebrating winning the World Series and the Texas Tech Red Raiders beating Texas last night.  The ultimate victory is Jesus' victory over sin - death and the power of evil.  The Saints celebrate forever!
