Simply the Sermon for September 27, 2026: Eighteenth Sunday After Pentecost
Our readings for Sunday, September 27 are Ezekiel 18:1-4, 25-32; Philippians 2:1-13; and Matthew 21:23-32.
Jesus’ parable about two sons who don’t do what they say reveals surprises in the reign of God. In the reading from Ezekiel the people claim the ways of the Lord are unfair, while God offers repentance and new life. Paul urges us to look to Christ as a model of humility, putting the interests of others above our own. We will make it into heaven, but is it likely that we will make it at the head of the class?
