Lessons can be learned from shrewdness
CHRIST LUTHERAN CHURCH: The gospel
text for the 17th Sunday after Pentecost will give
both the reader and preacher a jolt. In it, Jesus tells
a story of how Christians might have something to
learn from a shrewd manager who has been caught
mismanaging his employer's property. Knowing he
was about to be fired and unemployed, the manager
did his "networking" to ensure his connections in
his field of work. Although the manager was at best
unethical, and at worst a thief, Jesus suggests that
there might be something to be learned from his
shrewdness [Luke 16:1-13].
We have difficulty in understanding the
message because most of us would interpret the
word shrewd as illegal and deceiving. The first
definition, however, brings a different under-
standing, "astute or sharp in practical matters."
Wise in practical matters is not always a virtue of
the Christian.
One of those arenas is the discipline of finance.
This shewd businessman knew how to cover his
losses in a difficult economic environment. Jesus
suggests that the Christian, too, should learn to be
astute and sharp in practical matters. That advice
brings into balance some of the unwise actions of
those who want to follow Jesus in totally counter-
intuitive ways.
The 8;30 a.m. service is a Traditional Lutheran
Liturgy; the 10:30 a.m. service is a more
Contemporary Celebrate! worship. The two groups
are connected by a Coffee Fellowship Time from
9:45 to 10:15 a.m.
Christ Lutheran Sedona is located at 25 Chapel

SEDONA CHURCH OF RELIGIOUS
SCIENCE: You are invited to join the Rev.
Stanley Otterstrom as he continues the month of
September serial about "Creative Power." There
is for each person a perfect divine design. There
is a place in life which you are to fill and no one
else can fill that place in life -- something which
you are to do, which no one else can do; it is your
destiny. This expression is held, in the divine
mind, awaiting your recognition. Imaging is the
creative power: It is necessary for you to see the
person has a perfect divine design
idea, before it can manifest. Your daily affirma-
tion: "Infinite spirit, open the way of the divine
design of my life to manifest; let the design within
me now be released; let me see clearly the perfect
plan." The perfect plan includes health, wealth,
love and perfect self-expression. This is the
purpose Of life, which brings perfect happiness.

Find a way to release your anger
SEDONA UNITED METHODIST CHURCH:
Family relationships can bring
us great joy, but they can also
be very difficult. When someone
we love hurts us, we can carry
that pain around with us for a
long time; anger and resentment
can become a destructive pres-
• ence in our lives unless we find
a way to let those emotions go.
How do we let go of the past,
forgive our families, and move
on to a new and different future?
Join us for worship this Sunday
for worship at 9:30 as the Rev.
Matt Ashley preaches the
message, "Forgiving Families."
On Saturday, Sept. 25, SUMC

THE CHURCH OF THE RED ROCKS:
focus on is the solid nature of the values each
of us holds. We live by values. Values control
everything we do, say or think. We cannot see,
measure or taste values, but they are a very real
part of our lives.
"Our values have been a part of our existence
since we took our first breath. In fact, in a spiri-
tual sense our values have surrounded us before
we even saw the light of day."
The question Ault will raise to worshipers this
Sunday is what are your values? What are the
life commandments which dominate and direct
your lives?
"Pushing this concept to the corporate level
we can also ask ourselves what the values of our
congregation are," Ault stated. "Each congrega-
tion has a set of values by which it lives out the
gospel. Some congregations exist to meet and
eat. Some congregations love to sing and pray
'and worship together. Still other congregations
are very mission-minded as they seek to help
others both locally and globally. Some congrega-
tions see great value in planting new churches."
Ault concludes that every congregation is
"Solid to the Core." The question is what is that
core? What moves and inspires you and your
congregation?
Located at 54 Bowstring Drive, the church
offers worship services at 8:30 and 10:30 a.m.
Childcare and Sunday School are available
during the 10:30 service. For information, call
282-7963.
Jesus calls on the sinners
ST. ANDREW'S EPISCOPAL CHURCH:
This Sunday in the Gospel reading Jesus meets
Matthew sitting at the tax booth. Upon Jesus'
request to "follow me" we hear of Jesus and his
disciples having dinner with other tax collectors
and sinners. The Pharisees wondered how Jesus
would eat with such people. Jesus responds,
"Those who are well have no need of a physi-
cian, but those who are sick." Jesus came to call
not on the righteous but sinners.
The 8 a.m. service is a spoken Rite I and the
10 a.m. service is a choral Rite II with traditional
hymns and music. Children meet at 9:45 a.m. for
a multi-age educational program and then join
parents for Holy Communion.
On Monday at 9 a.m. there will be a yoga class
held in the parish hall. At 9:30 a.m. the ECW will
presents "God's Healing Gifts,"
a daylong learning opportunity
about Healing in the Christian tradition. The

team at the Relay For Life on Friday, Sept. 24.

Does negativity have any power?..
UNIVERSITY OF SEDONA: Do you believe
that if you think negative thoughts, you will liter-
ally attract what you don't want to you? Perhaps
that seems true because negativity does seem
to result in experiences that you don't like. But
why do those unwanted situations really occur?
Do you actually attract those circumstances into
your life? Or could there be another explanation?
Could there be an explanation that will free you
from overly fearing your own thoughts?
This Sunday, the Rev. Steven Lane Taylor
will explore those questions, and invite you to
consider that there is only one power operating
in this world. It is the power of God. It is the
power of good. And what you experience jn life
is the result of either using that power, or not.
Sunday educational services under the
auspices of the University of Sedona College
of Advanced Spirituality emphasizing transcen-
dent spiritual explorations are conducted at the
Sedona Community Center at 11 a.m. SCC is
located at 2615 Melody Lane. For information,
call 203-0730.
Study the Book of the Covenant
WAYSIDE BIBLE CHAPEL: This Sunday
we will continue our study in the Book of the
Covenant. It ends with worship instructions from
which we learn more of the character and plan of
God. But the final words are a warning. It is a
warning that we see the national failed to take
heed. It is one we are warned to take to heart.
Our hope is that you will join with us in
seeking the presence of the Holy Spirit as we
study God's word. We want you to experience
God's love that is real and free. We pray that you
will encounter God and see Him like you have
never seen Him before.
Our weekly worship service is at 10:30 a.m.,
with our Sunday morning Bible study starting
at 9:15 a.m. We also have small group Bible
studies. A friendly wel'come awaits you at
Wayside Bible Chapel -- the church that Sedona
Schnebly worked so hard to see built. We are
located at 401 N. SR 89A in Uptown Additional
parking is available on the upper level. Hearing
assisted devices are available during the service.
For information, call 282-4262.
