Welcome to St. Stephen's On-Line Sermons!


You are listening to Reverend Edward's sermon from March 11, 2007, on the parable of the fig tree from the Gospel of Luke [13:1-9].


Selected passages:

“In the parable of the fig tree, Jesus warns us to repent, but like the gardner, He gives us a second chance. Lent is the season to exercize second chances, to dig around our own fig trees, put on the manure and wait for the fruit. With the simple, but yet powerful parable of the fig tree, Jesus solidified the point that you and I, we must live out evidence of our repentence."
