Excuses, Excuses
Matthew 22:1-14

Have you heard (or used) these excuses?

  • We need our Sunday recreational times
  • We have to work
  • Sunday is the only time we have to spend with our family (and apparently we don't want to spend it in worship)
  • Sunday is the only day we have to sleep in
  • I would get up early to pray, but I have a busy day ahead and need my rest
  • My spouse is not supportive of my faith
  • I know I should read the Bible, but television is more entertaining
  • I can't serve the Lord because my kids are active and I want to share all these times with my kids, perhaps when they are older.
