The Stone God Chose

Oct 4, 2026  •  Rev. Tom Norris

This sermon, based on the parable of the wicked tenants, challenges us to examine where we have confused stewardship with ownership, and what it costs us when we do. The stone the builders rejected becoming the cornerstone is not just a poetic image. It is the defining reversal of the gospel, and it invites us to ask whether we are building our lives, our congregations, and our futures on the foundation God has chosen or on stones of our own preference.
