Northtown Church of Kansas City Sermons

Hello everyone! NCKC is starting up it's new series The Prophet and the Prostitute (or how I came to love the American church again) starting with Hosea 1! I also make a reference to Derek Webb's album She Shall and Must Go Free and specifically to the song Wedding Dress by Derek Webb. Feel free to check them out and hopefully you enjoy the direction of the new series. 

Hey y'all, We are back! We are about to start a new series on Hosea but I thought I would record the Ash Wednesday Homily from last night. The Scripture that was used: Joel 2:1-2, 12-17; Isaiah 58:1-12; Psalm 51:1-17; 2 Corinthians 5:20b-6:10; Matthew 6:1-6, 16-21. 

Sermon | Rules for Thee and not for Me | Proper A26 | Matthew 23:1-12, 1 Thessalonians 2:9-20, Micah 3:5-12.  I definitely make way too many references to LOTR and Jim Henson's the Labyrinth. Sorry, not sorry. 

Sermon | The world equals skubalon | Exodus 20:1-4, 7-9, 12-20; Philippians 3:4b-14; Matthew 21:33-46

Proper 21A --  If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine. Scripture: Exodus 17:1-7, Psalm 25, Philippians 2:1-13, Matthew 21:23-32

Sermon for Proper A Week 16 (Lectionary talk).  Scriptures used: Psalms 124, Isaiah 51:1-6, Romans 12:1-8

We are almost there. We are at Mark 15, the last chapter before the end and today, we talk about Crucifixion and the importance of Christ sacrifice. Be blessed this week. 

We are getting so close to the end of our Human Bible study, ending 14:43-72 in this sermon. Yes, I took my sermon title from a Run the Jewels song. Also, yes, I do break down in this sermon. It's a long one, so there is no Scripture lead in but please, listen. It's an important one.  *Correction* in the sermon I mention that Elijah McCain was killed in Aurora but I reference that it's outside of Chicago, I was wrong, it was Aurora Colorado.  I apologize for the mess up. 

We continue on our Human Bible Study with Mark 14:1-42. I was a bit late getting this one out but it's a good one. We are nearing the end and Christ has his last meal and well, we finally talk a lot about sin and more important, our forgiveness from that sin. 

We find ourselves in Mark 13 for the Human Bible Study where we run into another divine appointment. It seems that the Lord has gone before us and planned that we would dealing with systems and the tearing down of those systems, well just about the time those things are happening in the United States. Also, we have talk about end times. So you know, very relevant things.
