WildWords: Sermons from Wildwood Mennonite Church

White Supremacy at Wildwood?!! Look carefully, it's closer to home than you think... Let's learn from the representatives WMC sent to the NAIITS 2018 Symposium.

Go to our Wildwood Mennonite Church website or Facebook page for links to listen in on some of the full talks at NAIITS from a diverse group of presenters.

We were pleased to have Gaylord and Lois share with us about their Canadian Foodgrains Bank learning tour to Ethiopia this past winter.

How's your spirituality working for ya? Does that word even make sense, beyond a vague notion that it's in the same ballpark as religion but somehow better? (Like, spirituality = religion for hipsters?) Also, do you have space for a friendly pastor in your fantasy football league?

Repent!!! (Umm, no thanks?) Change Yourself for the Better! (Yeah...that seems nicer, but still pretty hard to know where to begin.) Never fear, The Enneagram is here with a healthy dose of self-awareness and alternative ways of being yourself! (I hope the content is better than the sales pitch?) Guess you'll have to listen to find out. :)

How do we make sense of God? How do we understand God? How have people over time tried to think and talk about God? Maybe we'll find a new idea that will help us in our relationship with God.

Listen as Rick shares his musings about God.

“Be on your guard. Stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong. Let all that you do be done in love.” 1 Corinthians 16:13-14

We were privileged to have Vic share with us his thoughts on growing in courage to have faith in love.

"Don't worry, be happy!" It's finally time to talk about the Enneagram Type Nines! But before you get toooo comfortable, be aware that there might be a bit more going on under the surface than "Hakuna Matata" would have you believe... and that's a good thing!

Katniss Everdeen. Samwise Gamgee. Queen Elsa. Marlin the Clownfish. Sansa Stark. Ron Weasley. C3P0. Piglet. Even ("Holy Penetrating Self-Awareness, Batman!"), Robin. All the best fictional characters are Sixes, and their strength is surprising only to themselves. For those of us who are non-fiction Sixes, how can we learn to turn our fear into strength?

Enneagram Type 8 - What does God have in common with Beyonce? Listen for stories of Independent Women who show just how fierce God can be.

Time to talk about Enneagram Type One in our "Stained Glass: Nine Windows of Divine Light" series. The expectations around this one are enormous! #sermonfail #dobetternexttime
