On Pentecost Sunday, our sermon comes from Romans 8:14-17. In his next-to-last sermon as the pastor of Ogden Memorial UMC, Rev. Shannon Blosser focuses on how we often need to remember that we are part of a family that is bigger than we can imagine. That is God's family.

On Ascension Sunday, Rev. Shannon Blosser continues his series "Final Words" by looking at Luke 24:44-53. He says that we are called to be story tellers of the Gospel's love. This, he says, is the important task of the church today.

We start a new series, Four Final Words, where Rev. Shannon Blosser shares four final thoughts he wants to give Ogden Memorial before leaving June 16. This week's message is focused on John 14:23-29 and looks at what it means to be faithful. Rev. Shannon says being faithful is about living out the love of God.

In this week's sermon, Rev. Shannon Blosser takes a look at what we believe about salvation. Using Revelation 21:1-6, he looks at how salvation calls us to live with hope of God's redemptive work in the midst of a broken world.

Rev. Shannon Blosser continues to build upon what it means to live as Easter people with this message from John 10:22-30. The passage focuses on Jesus' words to the religious elites that his sheep - true followers - hear his voice and follow him. Rev. Shannon looks at what it means to listen to God and asks if we are truly willing to pay attention.

This week's sermon is centered along the shores of Galilee, where Jesus and Peter have a long conversation about their relationship. In this sermon, Rev. Shannon Blosser examines how John 21:15-19 is a call for Peter, and each of us, to love in response to God's love for us.

The Sunday after Easter is often reserved to hear the story of Thomas. Rev. Shannon Blosser looks at John 20:19-29 and wonders about where was Thomas and also how we might make room for those who have doubts in our communities of faith.

On this Easter Sunday, Rev. Shannon Blosser reflects on the meaning of the empty tomb and how it affects our lives today. The passage for the sermon is Luke 24:1-12.
