April 08, 2019 God Moves Us...To Empty Ourselves
April 07, 2019John 12: 1-8 NRSV
Kevin PowellFirst Lutheran ChurchCalgary, AB
When Mary poured expensive perfume on Jesus’ feet it wasn't supposed to make sense to Judas or the disciples because God's love doesn't make sense. God's love is offensive to common wisdom. It mocks logic. It doesn't add up and doesn’t even try to. It doesn't calculate risk versus reward. It simply pays without worrying about the price.

March 24, 2019 God Moves...Over The Fence
March 17, 2019Luke 13: 31-35 NRSV
Kevin PowellFirst Lutheran ChurchCalgary, AB
The Christian life isn’t about escaping who you are, but becoming MORE of who you are, it’s about developing the best of who you are, so that you can feed others with the fruit you bear with your own unique giftedness. The Christian life is about dying to those things that keep you from living your distinctiveness, and rising to live more fully the YOU that was created in love.

February 24, 2019 Unlimited Love
February 24, 2019Luke 6:27-38 NRSV
Kevin PowellFirst Lutheran ChurchCalgary, AB
Turning the other cheek is a well worn expression in church circles. But rather than telling his followers to become doormats in his name, Jesus was providing his followers with a way to respond to oppressive situations.When the world lashes out in anger, you respond in love. When others demean you have creative solutions to maintain your dignity.
