    Trust Without Losing Yourself

    Contributed by Ken Sauer on Jun 4, 2026
     | 81 views

    A sermon for a recovery worship service called Evening Grace.

    “Trust Without Losing Yourself” (Proverbs 3:5 + Step 3) We often think of “recovery” as something that belongs to a specific group of people, but the truth is far more universal. We are all recovering from something. Some of us are recovering from grief. Some from stress. Some from ...read more

     | 129 views

    A sermon about learning to worry less.

    Matthew 6:24–34 “The Freedom of Unclenched Hands” I want to begin this morning with a simple question, though not an easy one: What do you worry about most? What is it that keeps you awake at night or follows you around during the day like a shadow? Maybe it’s your children, or your aging ...read more

     | 106 views

    A sermon about the inclusive love of God that goes against the way of the world.

    Acts 8:26-39 The Gospel that Climbs into Your Chariot A few years ago, I visited a small hardware store in a town not far from here. It was the kind of place where the floors creaked and the shelves were stacked with everything from nails to fishing lures. As I walked in, I noticed an older ...read more

     | 216 views

    A sermon on God's good plan of Diversity as Capacity.

    Acts 2:1-21 The Theological Mic Drop of Pentecost When we talk about Pentecost, we’re talking about the birthday of the church. It’s right up there with Christmas and Easter, yet somehow it often slips by without much notice. But without Pentecost, without the Spirit’s bold arrival there ...read more

     | 238 views

    A sermon for the Sunday before Pentecost.

    Quit Gawking and Take a Hike Acts 1:6–14 There’s a moment in Acts 1 that always makes me smile. Jesus has risen from the dead—He has walked through walls, eaten broiled fish, opened the Scriptures, and spent forty days teaching about the kingdom of God. And the disciples, bless their hearts, ...read more

     | 864 views

    A Sermon about the presence of God.

    John 14:15-21 “I Will Not Leave You Orphaned” There’s a moment in John’s Gospel when Jesus looks at his disciples—these friends who have left everything to follow him—and says something they desperately need to hear: “I will not leave you as orphans.” It’s a striking choice of words. He doesn’t ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 345 views

    A sermon for all who have ever felt they were on the margins.

    “From Rejection to Purpose” 1 Peter 2:2–10 Rejection is one of the most universal human experiences. Most of us don’t remember the first compliment we ever received, but we remember the first time someone made us feel small. We remember the job we didn’t get, the friend group that didn’t ...read more

    The Gate, The Shepherd And The Life We Keep Missing

    Contributed by Ken Sauer on Apr 22, 2026
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,363 views

    A sermon about abundant life.

    John 10:1–10 “The Gate, the Shepherd, and the Life We Keep Missing” Today we’re stepping into a passage where Jesus uses an image that—let’s be honest—doesn’t exactly scream cosmic grandeur. He says, “I am the gate.” A gate. Not a throne. Not a chariot of fire. Not even a dramatic ...read more

    A sermon about transformation along the Emmaus Road.

    Luke 24:13–35 The Stranger Who Walks with Us It’s the afternoon of the Resurrection.

    The King Who Comes In Humility

    Contributed by Ken Sauer on Mar 23, 2026
     | 933 views

    A sermon for Palm Sunday.

    Matthew 21:1-11 The King Who Comes in Humility When Jesus enters Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, the first thing that strikes me is not the crowd or the palms or even the shouts of “Hosanna”--it’s the humility. And it’s not the soft, sentimental humility we sometimes imagine, but a fierce, intentional ...read more

    What Does It Mean To Be Alive?

    Contributed by Ken Sauer on Mar 17, 2026
     | 2,285 views

    A sermon about being a church that helps unbind one another.

    John 11:1-7, 17-27, 32-45 What Does it Mean to Be Alive? When we step into John 11, we step into one of the most emotional and hope filled stories in Scripture. Lazarus—friend of Jesus, beloved brother, pillar of his community—becomes ill, and before help arrives, he dies. His sisters grieve, ...read more

    A sermon about seeing the image of God in every person.

    “Who Sinned? Learning to See People Again” John 9:1–41 When Jesus and his disciples encounter a man blind from birth, the disciples ask a question that sounds harsh to us, but in their world was completely normal: “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?” They ...read more

    A sermon about coming to Jesus with our pain.

    “Leaving the Jar” John 4:4-30, 39-42 Some burdens don’t feel like burdens until the moment we finally set them down.

     | 1,805 views

    A sermon about the journey of new life in Christ.

    John 3:1–17 “The Courage to Begin Again” Lent often invites us into wilderness places—those inner places where our assumptions loosen, our certainties wobble, and something new tries to take root. Today’s Gospel Lesson brings us into a different kind of wilderness: not a desert, but a quiet ...read more

    The final sermon in a series based on Dynamite Prayer by Rosario Picardo and Sue Nilson Kibbey.

    Ephesians 3:7 Holy Spirit: Our Posture There’s a reason chiropractors are doing so well these days. We are a people with posture problems, I know I am. We crane our necks at screens. We hunch over laptops like gremlins guarding treasure. And Some of us have perfected the “I’m listening but ...read more
