October 31, 2021 "Blessed are the Peacemakers" A Sermon by Barrett Owen
Jesus is clearing out any confusion with this Beatitude: to be a part of
God’s family . . . to be a child of God . . . to be someone who works
towards and makes peace.

October 24, 2021 "Blessed are the Pure in Heart" A Sermon by Barrett Owen
Think about all the children running around on the hillside overhearing
Jesus wax poetic. Think about what their little ears hear when Jesus says:
“Blessed are you, children, for you, are the pure in heart. You deserve a
world better than this. On this side of eternity, we’ve failed you, but in
God’s realm, you will be blessed, for you will see God.

October 17, 2021 "Blessed are the Merciful" A Sermon by Barrett Owen
“Mercy,” that’s a loaded word. The Greek here in Matthew is “eleemon.” This
refers to concrete acts of mercy . . . not so much a merciful attitude. I
like this distinction. “Blessed are those who show mercy, not just those
who have the capacity to forgive in their hearts.” See the difference? It’s
concrete. Blessed are those who do the hard work of letting things go . . .
who offer forgiveness . . . who show mercy.

October 10, 2021 "Blessed are Those Who Hunger and Thirst for Righteousness" A Sermon by Barrett Owen
There’s a lot about faith that is individual . . . no question. But there’s
also the reality that our faith must engage the world . . . we are called
to make disciples of all nations . . . which means we need to be people who
who hunger and thirst for the rights and well being of all created things.
But as you know, this work will wear you out. You’ll get tired, and you’ll
feel empty. But take heart, Jesus knows this. He sees this. And he promises
God’s abiding grace and love will be with you in this work.

October 03, 2021 "The Bread and Cup" World Communion Homilies by Kristen Koger and Barrett Owen
Today we paused our sermon series to observe World Communion Sunday. The
sermons are spliced together with Pastor Kristen reflecting on the Bread
and Pastor Barrett reflecting on the Cup.
"The Eucharistic meal is meant to be a microcosmic event, summarizing at
one table what is true in the whole macrocosm: We are one, we are equal in
dignity, we all eat of the same divine food, and Jesus is still and always
“eating with sinners” (for which people hated him) just as he did when on
Earth." - Richard Rohr

September 26, 2021 "Blessed are the Meek" A Sermon by Barrett Owen
Think about the teenage father who goes to work every day trying to
provide. He doesn’t try to fight the system. He doesn’t resist. He’s a
nobody from nowhere. But he cares for his family. He tries to provide, but
he can’t seem to make ends meet. Think about what he hears when Jesus says,
“Blessed are you, young dad, who chooses to be meek, for you will inherit
the earth. Your striving and hoping have a place with me. My kingdom is for
you.”

September 12, 2021 "Blessed are Those Who Mourn" A Sermon by Barrett Owen
Think about the senior adult sitting a few rows back on the hillside. Three
years ago he lost his wife. He can’t work. Disease wracks his body. The
government won’t help. The religious leaders tell him he’s too sinful to
cure. He lives every day as if it’s his last. Think about what he hears
when Jesus says, “Blessed are you who mourns, for you will be comforted.
Your brokenness and pain have a place with me.”

September 05, 2021 "Blessed are the Poor in Spirit" A Sermon by Barrett Owen
Think about the single mother with kids who have been rejected by society.
She’s sitting on the grass rocking her twin girls feeling her future won’t
matter ever again. Think about what she hears from Jesus: “Blessed are you
single mom, whose poor in spirit, broken by society, culture, religion, and
politics. Blessed are you, for the kingdom of heaven is yours.”

August 29, 2021 "Christ-Soaked Relationships" A Sermon by Barrett Owen
A life soaked in prayer and devotion allows you to be in the presence of
outsiders and be so rooted in who you are . . . and your identity in Christ
. . . you can be gracious to them. You can speak tenderly to them. Your
actions are seasoned with salt.

August 22, 2021 "A Christ-Soaked Life" A Sermon by Barrett Owen
Our actions matter. It’s why the author of Colossians includes a list that
of how we need to act towards one another, even those we struggle to like.
Colossians 3:12-14 says, “Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and
dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility,
gentleness, and patience. Bear with each other and forgive one another if
any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave
you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together
in perfect unity.” To live a Christ-soaked life is to live out these
verses.
