Sermons

Sermons preached in a context, but written for people of all sorts and conditions.

  • The crowd’s encounter with John the Baptist in the wilderness opens up questions for all people of faith to explore and learn from.

  • The coming of John the Baptist invites us to not only hear his words, but considering the context, recognize how they are for us, too.

  • This first Sunday in Advent, we explore Jesus’s apocalyptic vision and what it says about the way we work through our present.

  • As we celebrate the final Sunday of the church year, we engage with matters of kingship, authority, and why we get it all mixed up.

  • When we read of our concerning future, of where things are headed, we are still called to be committed to sharing joy with others.

  • In the example of Christian saints, we have people who lived remarkable lives who point to our own capacity to live the same way.
