Sermons

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

  • Having to

    The boundaries evident in the passage about the woman at the well are evocative. And so is the way Jesus crosses them.

  • Plenty of Road

    Lent is a season of discipline. This week’s gospel is a real test for our ability to keep our focus on the goal.

  • A Poem of Temptation

  • Wrestling with the Temptation of Jesus in the Wilderness, we can’t escape the story is about power and control.

  • Public Prayer

    The gospel for Ash Wednesday invites us to rethink praying in public. And what it is we’re really going on about.

  • Listening

    The Transfiguration is not merely an event: it is a turning point in the work of teaching Jesus has been doing.
