A Jesus Centered Community of Scripture, Faith, and Grace
Sermons on John (Page 3)
We talk about how Jesus walked into a situation that was normally marked by “social distancing” but that He disregarded the anxiety and connected with the woman at the well. Sermon Scripture: John 4:1–42 Now when Jesus learned that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John (although Jesus…
We talk about the best song in the world, the faith that we have in Jesus Christ. Sermon Scripture: John 3:1–17 Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. This man came to Jesus by night and said to him, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher…
We start off our MADE sermon series talking about how we are made to Behold Jesus and to celebrate the relationship we have with Him, how He invites us to “Come and see” Him and where He is. Sermon Scripture: John 1:29–42 The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold, the…
We celebrate Holy Trinity Sunday by talking about how God is distinctly different from us, but who still treats us as a Father.
We kick off our series “My Name is Baptized” with the celebration of Holy Trinity, which of course means the Athanasian Creed. We talk about fine china and our Baptisms, ownership and inheritance. Sermon Scripture: John 3:1–17 Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. This man came to…

We finish our “Theology of the Cross” series with the final thesis of the theology of the cross, which is all about how God creates what He loves, as opposed to how we can only love what we can experience – and somehow, pizza comes up. Sermon Text: John 11 The Death of Lazarus [1] Now…
We talk about Jesus and the blind man who was healed, but mostly about how Jesus goes beyond the categories and equations that we try to fit Him into. Sermon Text: John 9 Jesus Heals a Man Born Blind [1] As he passed by, he saw a man blind from birth. [2] And his disciples…
Today we baptized little Isaac and talked about how we can sometimes get confused about subjects and objects in our understanding of God – hint hint, the subject is always Jesus. Sermon based on: John 4:5-30 [5] So he came to a town of Samaria called Sychar, near the field that Jacob had given to…
About 2nd Sunday after Epiphany: Again we have a traditional text that shows up in every year of the lectionary. The 2nd Sunday after Epiphany uses John’s telling of the Miracle at Cana. As we consider this sign, we consider what it tells us about Jesus – that He is the Bridegroom of the Church…
