Sermons from St. George's

Sermon from Confirmation Sunday and the Bishop's Annual Visitation at 8:45am.

One dimension to our faith is that we receive with faith the testimony to Jesus that eyewitnesses have handed down to us. But God doesn’t leave us to only put our faith in what others have seen and experienced so many centuries ago. We may not have seen Jesus physically during the first century, but we can meet him in our own day and time, through the power of his presence in his Word, in the sacraments, and in times of prayer. Sermon from The Table.

In our passage Moses reminds the people to observe the Sabbath. As Easter people, why is it important for us to observe the Sabbath as well? From Deuteronomy 5:12-15: "Observe the sabbath day and keep it holy, as the Lord your God commanded you. For six days you shall labour and do all your work. But the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God; you shall not do any work—you, or your son or your daughter, or your male or female slave, or your ox or your donkey, or any of your livestock, or the resident alien in your towns, so that your male and female slave may rest as well as you. Remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and the Lord your God brought you out from there with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm; therefore the Lord your God commanded you to keep the sabbath day." Sermon from The Table.
