    Beyond The Crystal Ball Series

    Contributed by Clair Sauer on Jan 15, 2010
    based on 4 ratings

    United by the Spirit as the Body of Christ, the manifestation of our God-given gifts is a prophetic ministry in the world.

    I prayed for Haiti last night. In fact, I’ve prayed for Haiti several nights this week, and lots of time during the days too. As I sat doing work on Wednesday evening, my mom sent me a text message. It said, “I’m watching CNN…Unbelievable. So sad.” And so I turned on CNN and I watched a listened as ...read more

    It’s Exactly The Same, Except Different Series

    Our God-given gifts are offered not for individual glory, but so that we would join together in serving God’s Kingdom.

    I would like to begin by sharing with you today an event in my life that at the time felt like the worst thing that had ever happened to me, but which in retrospect has proven to be a significant and defining point of my life. This seems especially true as I think about that particular event from ...read more

    It All Begins With Praise Series

    The sermon explores answers to the questions of who God would have us to be and what God is calling us to do.

    Advent is over, Christmas has come and gone, and this morning we gather here shaking off the “sleepies” from a late night of celebration as we rang in the New Year on Friday. With all the festivities over and the activities done, we are prone to look around listlessly wondering, “What now?” ...read more

    What’s In A Name?

    A Christmas Eve sermon describing the great and varied attributes of our Savior!

    Names are an interesting phenomenon. We have last names, and first names, and many of us even have middle names. In some places in the world, people are properly addressed by their first names and then their last names, while in other parts of the world you begin an address with a person’s last ...read more

    Giddy For God!

    We have much to celebrate in the Christmas season and throughout the year, and it’s all because of God in Christ Jesus!

    In my observation, there’s something about the Christmas season that gets us all acting a bit atypically. Of course, this is manifest in things like nationwide stampedes at the local Wal-Marts to get a grab at the limited supply of “Tickle Me Elmos,” but I think where you can really see something ...read more

    Even as we hear John the Baptist’s message to prepare ourselves for the coming of the Lord, we are to follow his example in ministry.

    As many of you are aware, I love to hike. This is also a pastime enjoyed by my Dad and the rest of my family as well. So, a couple of weeks ago while we were on vacation in Destin, Florida, we decided to go on a little hike. Now, it doesn’t take much to figure out that hiking in Florida is very ...read more

    With Joyful Thanks

    based on 2 ratings
     | 4,839 views

    Our Thanksgiving is lived out through the Advent season as we seek to draw nearer to God, even as God in Christ Jesus draws nearer to us.

    Always after Thanksgiving, I just want to plop down in a chair and go, “Ahhhhhhhh!” Thanksgiving is a funny sort of holiday; somehow relaxing and tiring at the same time. Between cooking, eating, catching up with friends and family, and now Black Friday shopping; it’s enough to energize you and ...read more

    Part of experiencing the fullness of God’s grace is reaching out to God in belief and prayer.

    I have always been a fan of Winnie the Pooh. I remember as a young girl in elementary school, my Mom would dress me in her bedroom each morning before school. As we got ready, I would watch Pooh’s Corner (I believe it was called), on the Disney Channel. Now, this was not the animated Winnie the ...read more

    O How The Mite-Y Have Fallen

    Contributed by Clair Sauer on Nov 5, 2009
     | 3,524 views

    Pursuing God’s will for our lives requires personal sacrifice.

    I’m sure that some of you are a little nervous right now that I’m going to talk to you about money and about how you all need to give more to God and to the church. I certainly could do that; the story of the widow’s offering lends itself well to a sermon about tithing and giving to the church. But ...read more

    An All Saints’ Sunday sermon: we honor the saints who have gone before us by following their example and seeking Christ’s call.

    Years ago on a TV show, a guest appeared that was a body builder. He entered the stage with his huge muscular body, and the crowd went crazy as the body builder began to flex his muscles and show his power. The first question asked of him was this: “What do you use all those muscles for?” Without ...read more

    The hope that rests in Jesus Christ is only fully realized when we place our full faith in Christ and respond to his call with enthusiasm.

    We talk about hope a lot. As a matter of fact, as I was sitting at home working on this sermon, I was scanning the TV listings for the evening, and one of the movies showing on that particular day was, Star Wars IV: A New Hope. Despite all the talk about hope, assurance of hope is not so easily ...read more

    We comes to points of deep darkness in our lives, but if we can hold fast to faith, we can keep hope.

    Let me begin by acknowledging that this is a difficult passage to hear, as is much of the book of Job. We have a tendency in our modern world to like things to be nice and clean; neat and easy to understand; joyful and upbeat. Job is really none of those things. We tend to try and make Job ...read more

    Not Just A Bunch Of Talking Heads

     | 3,514 views

    God intends us to be united in community, a community which scatters across the earth sharing the love of Christ.

    A few years ago, I was on a road trip with several college students. We were on our way to Charleston, South Carolina, and I was driving the van late at night. I told the students that whoever rode “shot-gun” had the task of talking to me and keeping me awake. As we made our way over the flat, ...read more

    God has made us to be generous, and through our generosity we are changed and the world is transformed.

    As I begin this morning, I want to invite each of us into a few moments of reflection. I would like each of you to recall, as best as possible, the moment in your life when you were happiest. But even more than happiness, try to call to mind that time in your life when you knew the most ...read more

     | 6,728 views

    As Christians, our life mission is reflected in part through our generosity; this is why we are called to return to God a portion of God’s blessings to us.

    I am in the midst of reading a book written by a Chaplain of the Maine State Warden Service. In her book, Here If You Need Me, Kate Braestrup describes her encounters serving as the spiritual presence in the Warden Service, and raising four children as a single mother after the death of her ...read more
