Sermons

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

  • What does it really mean that Jesus comes with a sword to bring division? We first need to realize we’re looking at our own world wrong.

  • The root of discipleship is in sacrifice–a concept which, much like acknowledging white supremacy and racism, is a truth we’d rather avoid.

  • We are one

    In the Trinity, we have a doctrine of undivided unity. This is actually our roadmap for embodying Christ through the world.

  • It is easy to get distracted by the rushing wind and tongues of fire. But the true revelation is that there is a force that would propel us at all.

  • Jesus talking about love in the midst of crisis is always relevant. Jesus saying each other is the way to know God is even more so.

  • Jesus shows us that the way to deal with fear isn’t to fight or flight. It’s about trusting God in the middle of things and know we are together.
