The Unmerciful Servant - Joel Nagel 11/16/25

This week in the Detroit Church of Christ, Joel Nagel visiting from the Lansing church, shares the lesson 'The Unmerciful Servant'. Joel, reading from the book of Matthew, discusses how we can be conditional in our love. How even the apostle Peter struggled with this when he said ‘How many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me?’ Joel helps us to see how we can learn to love more completely if we follow the form of the ‘Lord’s Prayer’ in Matthew 6. That our prayers need to include praising God, asking for forgiveness of our sins, and having mercy on others.

Prodigal God - Kyle Eastman 11/09/25

This week in the Detroit Church of Christ, reading from Luke 15, Kyle Eastman shares the lesson 'Prodigal God'. He helps us to see how the father in the story was so overly generous and loving to the son. How the father’s response was not customary for the time, almost unthinkable. Kyle asks us to consider this: God’s love for us is the same as we see here, extravagant, personal, and always true. How we are broken people, that understanding God’s unconditional love and really trusting in Him, will transform our heart and life.

The Tale of Two Wanderers - Kyle Eastman 11/02/25

This week in the Detroit Church of Christ, Kyle Eastman reading from Luke 15, shares the lesson 'The Tale of Two Wanderers'. Kyle helps us to see that the story of the Prodigal Son is about both sons; that the story of the older son is the real story; that there is more than one kind of wandering but only one result. How our ‘goodness’ can mask our true motives, blinding us from the truth about ourselves. We must obey for the right reasons focusing on our relationship to God and that alone is our reward.

This week in the Detroit Church of Christ, Olumide Faulkner shares the lesson 'The Parable of the Sower'. Reading from Mark 4, and 1st Thessalonians, we see how we can be accepting of God's Word, ready to take what we hear to heart, or can be like those who turn away from the Word. Olumide reminds us the Word of God flourishes in the heart that accepts it, and the heart that accepts it, is the heart that obeys it.

The Jesus Movement - Andrew Elliott 10/19/25

This week in the Detroit Church of Christ, Andrew Elliott shares the lesson 'The Jesus Movement'. Reading from Luke, Andrew helps us to re-think how we are as disciples. Are we doing things in an old legalistic way like some of the people Jesus was speaking to? Or are we challenging ourselves to be better and closer to Jesus each day? Our hearts and lives need to be transformed each day by the truth found in Word of God, and be ready to share this message with the others around us.

Happy Princes and Samaritan Heroes - Kyle Eastman 10/05/25

This week in the Detroit Church of Christ, Kyle Eastman shares the lesson 'Happy Princes and Samaritan Heroes'. Reading from Luke 10, Kyle helps us to examine our hearts and consider: Are we like the priest and Levite, or are we like the Samaritan in the parable? Kyle teaches us the word Mishpat, the Hebrew word used over 300 times in the Bible. It is used to mean justice, but the full meaning is humility, mercy, love and compassion. His challenge: If we are indeed striving to be like Jesus, we cannot push helping those who are vulnerable and without to the side even though our lives are busy, but must make actively helping the vulnerable part of our Christian walk.

This week in the Detroit Church of Christ, Andrew Elliott shares a lesson about 'Hell, and God's Judgment and Mercy'. Reading from Matthew 21, the 'Parable of the Tenants' Andrew helps us to see ourselves more clearly; how we can be just like these 'Wicked Tenants', rejecting God, his servants, and His word. He challenges us not to live a life deceived like these 'tenants' but to face the truth who we are. That we must change our motivation to live by gratitude for God's boundless mercy.

Scandalous Generosity - Kyle Eastman 09/14/25

This week in the Detroit Church of Christ, Kyle Eastman shares the lesson 'Scandalous Generosity'. Reading from the 'Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard' in Matthew 20, Kyle helps us to see what a person with a truly generous heart looks like. That it is not one that is keeping score and comparing oneself to others. When we compare ourself to others, we should not be filled with envy and anger, but filled with gratitude for the grace given. Kyle reminds us, you cannot experience the full powerful weight of grace until you embrace the full powerful weight of your sin.
