  • At Your Word: Finding Satisfaction

    Contributed on Jul 4, 2026
     | 51 views

    A different look at Peter's calling, looking at it in comparison to Solomon's lack of fulfillment in finding worldly pleasure, how Peter quit his work at the height of accomplishment to follow Jesus.

    At Your Word: Finding Satisfaction Good MORNING. It’s always enjoyable to read a familiar Gospel lesson and suddenly see something in it you hadn’t thought of before. For the past several years, whenever we come to the story of Jesus calling Peter, Andrew, James, and John, I’ve focused on one ...read more

  • Don't Wait For The Boat

    In the Lord's Prayer, Jesus teaches us that prayer is not a last resort or a wish list, but a relationship with our heavenly Father.

    Don’t Wait for the Boat Good MORNING. One of my favorite “sermon” stories is about two men shipwrecked on a deserted island. After several days, one of them fell to his knees and started praying. “Lord, I know I haven’t been a good person. I’ve lied, cheated, and made a mess of things. But if You ...read more

  • Sheep Still Worth Seeking

    Jesus' parables of the Lost Sheep and Lost Coin remind us that God's grace relentlessly seeks the lost, and challenge us to see people the way Christ sees them, as sheep still worth seeking.

    Sheep Still Worth Seeking Good Morning. Today, we look at one of the most famous/sheep. Relatable parables, the lost coin. Not for everyone, but definitely me. I have a “keys and wallet” problem, in that they constantly go missing. It happened again on Friday when I spent half an hour urgently ...read more

  • Trading A Feast For An Errand

     | 116 views

    In the parable of the Banquet, we see how easy it is to trade a feast with our Lord for routine errands.

    Good Morning. Today we’re looking at God’s invitation and our excuses. We most often think of God’s invitation as the invitation to receive the Gospel. But the invitation doesn’t end there. God invites us into a daily relationship with Him. And not a painful, stressful one, but an invitation to a ...read more

  • When Life Doesn’t Seem Fair

    Contributed on Jun 6, 2026
     | 131 views

    When we get frustrated in this broken world, Psalm 73 reminds us to go to the Lord in his Sanctuary to find your answers.

    Good MORNING. The Sundays after Trinity focus on what it means to live as a Child of God. Today we begin with Psalm 73. One of the first challenges God's children face is discovering that the world is not fair. Even preachers face this. Jeremiah has to be reassured this morning about lying ...read more
