Enough for Everyone | Rev. Dr. Michael Caveney | September 20, 2026

<p>On September 20, Cedar Park United celebrated the second Sunday in Creation Time and prepared to mark the International Day of Peace. Our worship centred on Jesus’ parable of the workers in the vineyard from Matthew 20:1–16. </p><p>In the story, a landowner hires workers throughout the day, including some who have waited until the final hour because no one else has given them work. When evening comes, everyone receives a full day’s wage—enough to live on. The landowner’s generosity challenges us to consider fairness through the lens of human need rather than simply calculating what each person has earned. </p><p>This story also helps us explore the biblical meaning of flourishing. In Scripture, flourishing is shared. People flourish when everyone has food, shelter, dignity, and a place to belong. Creation flourishes when waters run clean, soil remains healthy, and other creatures have room to live. One part of creation cannot truly flourish through the deprivation or destruction of another.Connect with Cedar Park United: cedarparkunited.org</p>
