Sermons from Myers Park Presbyterian Church

Ponder how God’s providential love can be seen in the abundance of manna provided to the Israelites in the wilderness and to us today.

Consider why the wilderness can be a spiritual condition as well as a place. Often these wilderness times, when we wrestle with our faith, are when we learn who God really is.

Encounter the powerful, life-giving word, deliver, and its meaning for the Israelites in Egypt as well as for us in today’s modern world.

Note why groaning is our cry for help when life weighs us down, and gain a new appreciation for God’s response: redeeming love.

Deepen your understanding of Israel as more than a geographical location. Israel is a state of mind, a people, a heritage with God. Israel is the story of divine intervention and love. Israel is our story.

See why divine intervention is not always rational and the desire to laugh has been shared by everyone from Abraham to Moses.

Examine why God has chosen to be bonded to us in covenant. Why God’s love never fails. And why even when we rebel and stray, God remains faithful.

Discern how God can transform us and redirect our desires. Our old self dies and a new self is born. Imagine the possibilities.

Discover why the story of creation is not a fairy tale or a children’s bedtime story. Instead it is an ongoing testimony to God’s redemptive power.

Explore why God is in the business of renewal. The world needs this hope. We need this hope.
