Sermons on Sin
We continue our sermon series about the Great Adventure of our baptized lives. Today we look at our failures and how they are used by God to show us His patience for us.
What are you capable of? – We start a new sermon series called “Follow the Story” as we look into the parables of Jesus. Genesis 50: 15-21 | Psalm 103: 1-12 | Romans 14: 1-12 | Matthew 18: 21-35
We start our series “God of the Goofs” by talking about Peter and his failed “water walk” and finds Jesus rescuing him – something showing him, and us, who Jesus really is. Sermon Scripture: Matthew 14:22–33 Immediately he made the disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, while he…
We talk about how repentance is God’s repair of our souls. Sermon Series: Luke 13:1–9 There were some present at that very time who told him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. And he answered them, “Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans,…
We talk about how God has included us into His family, into His mission, and how He does that despite our sins of omission and the things that we don’t do – forgiving them and renewing us. Sermon Scripture: Luke 4:16–30 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up. And as was…
We talk about our expectations and God’s expectations and how those things come together in our readings, especially the reading that we have from the Gospel of John where Jesus turns water into wine. Sermon Scripture: John 2:1–12 On the third day there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus…
What do you have trouble seeing around? That’s the big question that we talk about today as we look at the story of Jesus’ baptism from the Gospel of Luke and all of the things that needed clarity, and how our lives can benefit from God’s clarity as well as we think about our vocations.…
We kick off both our Annual Focus (Called by the Gospel) and our Advent sermon series (Christmas Calling) with a sermon that really looks at a small line from Jeremiah 33 – “This is the name by which it shall be called, ‘The Lord is our Righteousness’” and how that relates to our vocations. Sermon…
We count down to the 2nd to last Sunday of the Church year and start looking beyond our own lives to heaven and the Resurrection by asking ourselves some tough questions about our expectations for the afterlife and what God promises us. Sermon Text: Mark 13:1–13 And as he came out of the temple, one of…
Hatfields, McCoys, Noles, Gators, Canes, Republicans, Democrats, etc etc. We separate ourselves in all sorts of ways, but the amazing thing about the Gospel is how being covered in the Blood of Jesus means that we’re all together – at least in terms of our sins and forgiveness. Sermon Scripture: Ephesians 2:11–22 Therefore remember that at…
