1 John 3: 1-3 "See what love the Father has given us, that we should be called children of God." This passage is always lifted up lovingly in Sunday School classes. Isn't it so comforting and happy. Except that I'm not always sure we want to be called children of anyone most of the time. Certainly I did not in my early 20s, after … [Read more...]

Testimony
April 14, 2021
a sermon on Acts 4: 32-35 Acts is generally a story of early heroes of the Christian Church: Peter, of course, and Paul. Stephen in his martyrdom, Barnabbas and Silas in their assistance, Dorcas in her charity, Lydia in her belief and her sponsorship. But before we get to the superheroes, we get a glimpse of the everyday people: “and … [Read more...]
Stick It Out
April 7, 2021
An Easter sermon on John 20: 1-18 The whole story today is a bit like a big cosmic game of “Where’s Jesus?” From the time Mary Magdalene and the other women arrived at the tomb that morning and found it empty, the whole cast of characters (angels exempted, of course) were asking the question, “Where’s Jesus?” Through the whole story Mary is … [Read more...]
Dying
March 25, 2021
A sermon on John 12: 20-33 In today’s scripture I could not escape the notion that God was sharing this scripture for one line: “Very truly, I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains just a single grain; but if it dies, it bears much fruit.” I knew going into Holy week starting next Sunday we might need … [Read more...]
Salvation
March 25, 2021
A sermon on John 3: 14-21 John 3: 16 “For God so loved the world” may be the most famous passage in Scripture. And as much as I need to know that God loves not just me, but the whole world; and as much as it is a joy to know that Jesus brings eternal life – I can’t help but be a John 3:17 kind of Christian instead. “Indeed, God … [Read more...]
