The Second Sunday after the Epiphany. 

What does it mean to be on the Jesus side of history? On MLK weekend, the question before the church is not whether injustice exists, but whether Christians will align their lives, policies, and daily habits with the eternal law of love taught by Jesus of Nazareth.

The First Sunday after the Epiphany: The Baptism of Our Lord. 

What if God hides cosmic truth in the smallest, most ordinary things?  Explore how water, oil, bread, and wine shape us into people of love, courage, and justice. In a world driven by fear and force, this sermon invites us to rediscover a quieter, embodied way forward, one practiced daily at the table and in the world.

The Second Sunday after Christmas. 

What if faith isn’t about believing a fairy tale, but about recognizing a signal that keeps calling us home? In this Epiphany sermon, Fr. John explores the power of sacred storytelling, doubt and devotion, and the moments of clarity that quietly guide us through darkness toward light. Like the Magi following a star, we reflect on how faith often unfolds not as certainty, but as a journey shaped by memory, longing, and grace.

The First Sunday after Christmas. 

At Christmas, the Gospel of John proclaims a profound paradox: the Word who created the world enters it unable to speak. This sermon reflects on the Word made flesh, present among us in vulnerability and silence, from the manger to the cross. In a world that often feels anything but peaceful, Christmas insists that peace has already been given, not by escaping suffering, but by moving toward it.

Christmas Day. 

What if the most powerful disruption in history came not with force, but as a newborn baby? In this Christmas Day sermon, Fr. Peter reflects on the birth of Jesus as a divine interruption that still reshapes lives 2,000 years later. Through stories of parenthood, wonder, and love, we’re invited to see how the Christ child gently reorients our hearts, our priorities, and our lives.

The Fourth Sunday of Advent. 

What if God doesn’t come through perfection, but through protection? On this Fourth Sunday of Advent, we encounter the often-overlooked courage of Joseph, a man who chose mercy over fear and sanctuary over shame. As Mary and Joseph face public judgment and social risk, we discover a God who enters the world not through moral policing, but through brave compassion. In a culture still addicted to shaming, Advent reminds us that Emmanuel means God is with us, offering shelter, not condemnation.

The Third Sunday of Advent. 

We’re good at hustling. We’re bad at waiting. But what if waiting is exactly where God is at work? Fr. John invites us to slow down, resist instant gratification, and trust the unfinished work of God.

The Second Sunday of Advent. 

Advent begins with a call not just to repent, but to metanoia — a lifelong turning of heart, mind, and spirit toward new life. Fr. Peter invites us to pray maranatha (“Come, Lord Jesus”) as a daily Advent mantra that quiets the soul and makes room for transformation.

The First Sunday of Advent. 

What happens when the life we’re living starts to feel like “all there is”? On the first Sunday of Advent, Fr. John invites us to hear Jesus’ urgent call—“Keep awake”—and to wake up to the deeper life God is offering now.

The Last Sunday after Pentecost: Christ the King. 

Christ the King Sunday asks us to take a final look back before Advent begins. But the King we celebrate is nothing like the rulers of this world. In Luke’s Gospel, Jesus is crowned not with gold but with suffering love — serving, healing, reconciling, and welcoming all as friends and children of God. His Kingdom isn’t a place we wait for; it’s a way of living the love already within us.
