Sermons on New Testament (Page 3)
Knowing Our Hunger
Understanding our spiritual hunger can be a tricky thing. Does it lead us down paths of destruction or does it turn our hearts and spirits toward God and one another?
Making History Now
Join us for Pride Sunday as look back at “what was,” mark the moment of “what is,” and lean into “what will be.” Happy Pride!
King or Prophet?
What on earth do we have to learn from a fickle King and a headless prophet? Why did Mark include this account here and what does it have to say to us today?
Travel Light
Jesus “hit a bump” when he attempted to minister in his hometown of Nazareth. It was a good opportunity to teach his disciples (then and now) what it means to travel light as we journey through life and seek to be of consequence for Christ in the world.
Faith and Trust: Our Faith in God, God’s Faith in Us
Ken Brown, our Lay Leader and Church Council Chair, will bring the message, inviting us to consider our faithfulness to God as well as God’s continued faithfulness to us.
Faith and Fear
Join us as we explore Mark’s version of the account of Jesus stilling the storm. While most of us haven’t found ourselves on storm-tossed seas, haven’t all of us have weathered turbulent times in life, times when fear rises and faith falters?
Within a Seed
On the days when we are hopeful AND on the days when we fret we are moving in wrong directions or will never get there, how might Jesus’ words about seeds offer us hope and reassurance?
Start at the Very Beginning
What invitation does Jesus extend to Nicodemus and what must Nicodemus wrestle with as he seeks to enter more fully and deeply into relationship with God?
Fluent in Wonder
Today is Pentecost Sunday. How do we encounter the Holy Spirit today? Can and will we be amazed and transformed? And if so, what difference might that make…in us and to the world around us?
In the World
What does it mean to be “in” the world but not “of” it? How do we live deeply, fully, faithfully in this precious world AND remember that we belong to another world as well… the kin-dom that is still becoming? What does one have to do with the other?
