STORYTELLER: Don't Bury It! (Matthew 25:14-30)

Have you ever pondered the profound question—what are you truly doing with what you have? In his latest sermon, Pastor Phil Ayres invites us into the parable of the talents, emphasizing that each person is uniquely created with specific gifts for a divine purpose. Through the captivating story of Laszlo, who unwittingly spent 10,000 Bitcoins on two pizzas, we learn about the value of recognizing what we possess. Phil challenges us to take inventory of our talents—time, skills, and relationships—and use them not out of obligation but out of joyful opportunity. His message resonates deeply within our daily lives as he reminds us that “all I have is from God, and all I have is for God.” Reflecting on the urgency of our call to stewardship, Phil highlights the importance of being faithful rather than flashy, connecting our individual contributions to the collective mission of the church. This sermon is an invitation into greater awareness and intentionality in how we live our faith, encouraging us to step beyond fear and invest our gifts for God's glory.
