Welcome to the Ontario Community Church sermon podcast!

We’re glad you’re here.

Today Pastor Patrick Dailey preached on “The Lamp Under a Basket.”

Jesus calls His people light of the world. This light is meant to be seen, not hidden. In Mark and Luke He adds a stewardship principle: “with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.”

Believe, remove the basket, and shine so people glorify the Father.

Highlights:
 • Lamp & stand — the purpose of light.
 • City on a hill — public faith and good works.
 • Measure & hearing — what we bring determines what we receive.
 • Response — believe, uncover, and shine.
