This year, we will be studying the ACNA Catechism, which is entitled To Be A Christian. The purposes for studying the Catechism are manifold, too many to list here. We will talk about those purposes more when class begins.

When we do something wrong, we’re all really good at trying to hide by blaming someone else. Listen in as Fr. Chris explains what’s behind this dynamic and how God views it.

At the end of John, Chapter 6, many of Jesus’ disciples “turned away and no longer followed him” because they said his teaching was too hard. Yet, not all of his disciples walked away from him. Some of his disciples continued to follow him. What made the difference? Listen in as Fr. Chris explains.

Our Gospel reading continues in John chapter 6, 53-59. The people are looking for bread and physical signs. Jesus has given them all those things, but they still fail to see that he is offering them so much more. Listen to Michael as he explains.

It was Youth Sunday, therefore the first part of Fr. Charles' sermon is to the children. In John chapter 6, Jesus offers the people true food and true drink only for them to ask for a sign. Join Fr. Charles as he explains why this is a problem.

The miracles of Jesus were, in many cases, signs. Their purpose was to point past themselves and to the person of Jesus. However, many in Israel focused only on what Jesus produced instead of seeing who He was. Join Fr. Charles, as he explains.

Michael, our Director of Young Adult and College Ministries, in his sermon on Sunday, goes through the beginning of Mark’s Gospel to our reading Mark 6:45-52.

Highlighting the people who encounter Jesus and their perception of who he is, Michael explains what a harden heart looks like and how we can overcome our own.

The feeding of the 5000 teaches us several lessons. One of the most pivotal is that, on our own, we do not possess the means to do what Jesus is asking. But as it turns out, he doesn't need us to. Join Fr. Charles as he explains.

Due to some technical difficulties, the last 10 minutes of Fr. Charles' sermon was recorded. In our Gospel reading, Mark 6: 7-13, Jesus is sending out the 12 to do the work they have seen Jesus doing - healing the sick, calling for repentance, proclaiming the Good News... Listen to Fr. Charles as he explains the advice that Jesus gave to them, is the same advice he gives to us today.
