Matthew 21:23-32

A sermon preached by the Very Rev. Bernard J Owens at Trinity Cathedral on September 27, 2026.

"We are here for a while. We inherit beautiful things we did not create. We tend to things we will never see completed. And we will hand things on to people we will never have the honor to meet. Perhaps that is part of what it means to be a faithful steward in God's vineyard: to tend what has been entrusted to us faithfully for the time we have. And then, eventually, we faithfully entrust it to someone else."

Matthew 22:1-14

A sermon by our guest preacher, the Rev. Rosalind Hughes at Trinity Cathedral.

“Sometimes we want Jesus to be the Messiah we want, we don’t always want Jesus to be the Messiah we need... the Messiah we need does not simply affirm everything we already believe. He holds us accountable and calls us out, beyond ourselves. [The Messiah we need] challenges us to examine the fears, anxieties, and assumptions that shape how we move through the world."
