First Baptist Waynesboro episodes:

November 08, 2020 "The Parable of the Ten Women" A Sermon by Barrett Owen
As the gospel continues to move towards the cross, Jesus retreats with his
disciples on the Mount of Olives and teaches them privately. Here, he
offers a warning for the disciples to keep their lamps trimmed and burning
by telling a parable full of sadness and uncertainty for five bridesmaids.

November 01, 2020 "The Humble Will Be Exalted" A Sermon by Barrett Owen
The tumultuous relationship between the religious authorities and Jesus is
getting worse. To open this chapter, Jesus denounces their leadership by
calling them, hypocrites. He ends his admonishment by reminding us all in
v11-12: “The greatest among you will be your servant. All who exalt
themselves will be humbled, and all who humble themselves will be exalted.”

October 25, 2020 "The Greatest Commandment" A Sermon by Barrett Owen
Now confronted by the Pharisees (not just the Temple elders and Sadducees),
this religious group tries to trap Jesus by asking him what the greatest
commandment is. Jesus’ answer has reverberated across centuries and should
shape our entire moral lens. All decisions must fit under the framework of
Loving God and Loving Others as we Love Ourselves.

October 18, 2020 "The Parable of the Wedding Banquet" A Sermon by Barrett Owen
Still talking to the chief priests and elders in the Temple, Jesus offers
another parable, and it is equally as dark as the first. Much needs to be
made about the type of story Jesus tells to the religious leaders. His
parables are dark, full of death, and corrupt leadership. Why do you think
he speaks in this way? The parable is nuanced and full of imagery. Working
our way through it together will not be a light-hearted task.

October 11, 2020 "The Parable of the Wicked Tenants" A Sermon by Barrett Owen
Verse 43 pretty much says all we need to know about the divisive nature of
Jesus’ teachings in Jerusalem. He says to the chief priest and elders in
the Temple: “Therefore I tell you, the kingdom of God will be taken away
from you and given to a people that produces the fruits of the kingdom.”
Think about this. Jesus tells the religious authorities that the kingdom of
God will not be their reward but rather those who produce the fruits of the
kingdom. This parable predicts Jesus’ death as well as indicts the
religious sector on wickedness.

October 04, 2020 "Signs and Symbols" A World Communion Homily by Barrett Owen
Communion is a symbol, not a sign. When we take the bread and drink from
the cup, we experience something beyond this world. This meal profoundly
connects us to Jesus. Mystically. Mysteriously. Magnificently. It offers us
Christ’s, immeasurable love.

September 27, 2020 "I Will Keep On with Joy" A Sermon by Barrett Owen
We have to be people of joy and gentleness. We have to be. Otherwise we
don’t win any competition that moves the world closer to the Divine. Our
crowning achievement may just be that we show the world that even in an
election year, politics can’t divide us. Something bigger unites us. And
that is the peace and love of God.

September 20, 2020 "I Will Press On With Joy" A Sermon by Barrett Owen
We don’t press on so we can gain more privilege, prestige, or possessions.
We press on to become more like Christ. Whatever we gain in life . . . it’s
a cheap imitation to what we are and who we are in Christ.

September 13, 2020 "I Will Humble Myself with Joy" A Sermon by Barrett Owen
There’s an idea in theology about two paths to God. The two paths are
“Great Love and Great Suffering.” And both of these paths lead to joy which
leads to God. It’s as if joy is what proceeds after tapping into the
Divine. And we experience the divine through both love and sorrow.

September 06, 2020 "I Will Live With Joy" A Sermon by Barrett Owen
How we operate in the world matters. How we associate with one another
(loving our neighbor) should be godly. Paul understands this and delivers
an impassioned letter to his friends and church community in Philippi to
remind them of what he already knows to be true: “If then there is any
encouragement in Christ, any consolation from love, any sharing in the
Spirit, any compassion and sympathy, make my joy complete: be of the same
mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind.” (Phil
2.1-2)
