Proper 15

Matthew 15.(10-20),21-28

Now is the time (AAA)

Know your priorities. That’s what we’re told these days. Be clear about the most important things you have to do and don’t allow yourself to be sidetracked.

Who's in, who's out? (CYP)

Sometimes we want to leave out people who are not like us, but it is often the people who get left out who can help us understand God’s love best of all.

What is religion about? Is it a matter of keeping external rules, or is it more to do with our inner being, our ‘heart’? To Jesus it is quite clear – it’s a matter of the heart.

These resources were first published in 2005.
