  • "Love and Peace or Else" | Sermon, June 7, 2026

    "Peace and Love" is a popular slogan as it has been since the 1960s. What began as a protest slogan has now become an aspiration for just about everyone. Who does not want peace and love? When we read some of Jesus' last words to his friends before his death and resurrection, we hear something just a little different. We learn from Jesus that true peace is impossible without love. This week we explore how love leading to peace is truly the way of Jesus.

  • "Behold Togetherness" | Sermon, May 31, 2026

    One of the great marks of the church of Jesus Christ is unity. Jesus prayed in the Garden of Gethsemane that "we might be one." Paul prays for the church in Corinth the very same things. What does it look like when a church has unity together? Does everyone think and act the same? This week explore how we can heed Jesus' exhortation to be ONE.

  • "Holy Reputation" | Sermon, May 24, 2026

    It is not easy being a Christian witness in the 21st century. When Christians hear how the Holy Spirit was poured out on the Day of Pentecost, there is joy mixed with a little trepidation. How can Christians live with a renewed sense of God's grace and power in our confusing world? This week, we explore how the disciples bore witness to the living Lord Jesus in a troubled and confusing time.

  • "How Christians Relate to Nationalism" | Sermon, May 17, 2026

    Many non-believers assume that all Christians think and live in a similar way. With national headlines captured by fundamentalist Christians who are convinced that the USA is God's divine agent in the world, the landscape becomes confusing to say the least. This week's episode highlights Jesus' encounter with the state. From Him, we might just learn how we are to witness a vital faith in a Kingdom not of this age.

  • "How Christians Relate to Anti-Semitism" | Sermon, May 10, 2026

    Anti-Semitism has plagued this world for centuries. At the heart of it is a twisted expression of Christianity which has largely forgotten the exhortation of the Apostle Paul. Judaism is the mother faith of Christianity. Not only is Paul Jewish, but so are all the disciples and Jesus himself. This week we explore our complicated relationship with our Jewish friends and how we might live with more and more mercy.
