Totally Composed: The Sermons of Dan Kent

Sunday October 4, 2026 • Dan Kent

What does it mean to seek wisdom? Dan Kent answers this question by contrasting wisdom with double-mindedness. James' letter says that those who are double-minded are tossed by the wind. They are pulled down two diverging paths. Dan connects James' instruction with the "two-ways tradition" and shows us what it means to walk in the way of wisdom.

The Bible is largely comprised of stories. What role do stories play in our lives? How can stories change us? Why does God's word to us come in the form of stories rather than propositions? These are questions that Dan Kent addresses in this sermon.

Dan Kent invites us to see three grand themes that are woven throughout Revelation and are brought together at the end of this grand book. These themes are the "two ways" pattern repeated throughout Scripture, the fact that the path of God is a person and that the destination of the path is communal.

At the heart of Christian unity sits a lifestyle of confession. We cannot connect with one another meaningfully if we are pretending to be someone we are not. Dan Kent shows us what biblical confession is, what it is not, and then points us toward practical steps to move into honest confession.

In a world that promotes judgment, division and isolation, Dan Kent looks at Paul's command to "bear with each other." Living in love does not mean only embracing those who are easy to love. Real love calls us to embrace those who require patient endurance. In this way, we reflect the love of the cross.

Dan Kent draws our attention to the words "my people" in Revelation 18:4. When we enter relationship with the Father through Jesus, we are also entering into a collective which is traditionally called the Church. Dan identifies two obstacles to loving the church. The first is hypocrisy. The second obstacle to loving the church is diversity that results in division. Dan provides some ways to address these two obstacles in a direct way. However, there is more going on beneath the surface. Dan then guides us to think deeper about what is driving these obstacles.

In this sermon, Dan Kent traces his own love for the Bible from his first encounter with the Book of Ecclesiastes, all the way up to the end of Revelation. He traces the theme of futility and meaninglessness in the scripture, and shows how God rescues us from life's absurdities. If you listen to this sermon, you might feel liberation from bondages you didn't even know were immobilizing you.

This first sermon in the "Love Does" series highlights the action of trust.
