  • Identity Quest
    The quest to reclaim Scriptural identity, our true identity, is thrilling, daunting, interesting, challenging and transformative. Why does it matter?

  • Too Much to Say Over Grace

    It is true that God wants us to be grateful. And it is true that God wants us to benefit from being grateful. And it is also true that God knows we cannot be truly grateful at the core of our being unless something changes.

    The servant was frightened of the new king. He feared losing the money the king gave him for safe keeping in a bad deal. So he did not play to win. He played not to lose. Any coach will tell you that’s the surest way to lose.

    We are accountable. The king is coming back to ask what we did with what he gave us. The measure will not be as much about how well we did as whether we got after it in the first place. The minas in this story were given in the same amounts to everyone. What is it that every person who belongs to Jesus gets in the same measure? It’s not gifts: our gifts differ. It’s not circumstances or length of life, physical strength or mental agility: those all differ markedly.

    What do all those in Christ receive? The blessed Holy Spirit within our spirits. We receive the mystical union with Christ.

  • Stopping Along the Way

    Who IS your neighbor? Let your compassion guide you.

    Which wounds break your heart? Go there.

    Which beaten souls tug at your soul? Go there.

    You can't go everywhere. But if we started with tending the wounds which pierce us with compassion, what a difference it would make.

    We continue our sermon series on the parables focusing on the Good Samaritan.
