    A Welcoming Grace

    Contributed by Fr. Rian Adams on Sep 16, 2019
     | 3,074 views

    Taken from the parable of the Good Shepherd who leaves the 99 to retrieve the one lost sheep, this sermon focuses on how grace is welcoming... hence, A welcoming grace. The sheep was retrieved​, then welcomed home.

    A Welcoming Grace Five words appear all across America. We print them on books, newsletters, church bulletins, and thousands of search signs. They are the de facto mission statement for an entire denomination. “The Episcopal Church welcomes you.” We insist that welcoming arms await all who ...read more

    no matter what we have done, God still loves us

    Now all the tax-collectors and sinners were coming near to listen to him. And the Pharisees and the scribes were grumbling and saying, 'This fellow welcomes sinners and eats with them.' (Luke 15:1-2) The verses you just heard are only a small portion of a lengthy conversation Jesus had ...read more

     | 4,935 views

    no matter who we feel, we are never lost from the love of God

    Luke 15:1-10 You will have noticed that we have been hearing a lot of parables in the last couple months. We are currently reading from The Gospel According to Luke, and parables are one of Jesus' favorite means of teaching. Today, we again have a parable that is really two parables, but ...read more

    no matter how lost or alienated we may feel, we are never lost from the love of Jesus

    Luke 15:1-10 How many of you have a habit of losing things: your wallet, your purse, your keys, a document, an address, a phone number, a pair of socks or earrings? Have you ever noticed how hard you will search for it? Finding the lost thing is the most important thing in your life at that ...read more

    God's not finished working on us at the potter's wheel. Hope is never lost!

    God’s Not Finished With Me Yet! I'm going off-script this morning. I usually preach from the Gospel lesson, but I feel like the Jeremiah reading is timely for us today. Sometimes we need spiritual encouragement. Jeremiah knew that, and he told the story of a potter’s wheel. I hope this sermon ...read more

    The End Is Near (Or Is It?)

    there is only one thing that is eternal - God's love

    (Luke 14:26) The Gospel we heard today is one of the numerous ‘apocalyptic’ verses foretelling the destruction and end of the world. Not a pleasant thing to have to preach about. . . . and not something that the average Episcopal Church lists among its favorite readings. We start out hearing ...read more

    Everyone's Invited To The Reception

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,546 views

    The sermon​ looks at Luke's Parable of the weddings guests who compete for the best seat​ at the table. Jesus makes it clear that everyone should be invited (poor, lame etc.), not just the rich and powerful. Such is the kingdom.

    Everyone’s Invited To The Reception Intro If you've lived through a wedding you know, they are of all things most stressful. What few people realize is how stressful weddings are for the clergy. Although we will never say it with parishioners around, when clergy get together, we inevitably ...read more

     | 2,855 views

    One can always improve their position, but can also be demoted

    THE PARABLE OF THE GREAT FEAST (Luke 14:1, 7-14) In this Gospel reading, we again find Jesus teaching through a parable – but this time we get two for the price of one. But they both deal with the issue of hospitality. Jesus is invited to Sabbath dinner at the home of a Pharisee; there are ...read more

    Parable Of Taking The Lowest Place

     | 1,838 views

    We should always assume the position of the least, just as Jesus taught

    PARABLE OF TAKING THE LOWEST PLACE (Luke 14:1) Jesus is invited to Sabbath dinner at the home of a Pharisee; there are lots of important people there and they are all watching Jesus to see what he will do. The Pharisees were gathering information that would be used later in Jesus’ trial in ...read more

    How often do we assume a more exalted position than is warranted?

    One time when Jesus went for a Sabbath meal with one of the top leaders of the Pharisees, all the guests had their eyes on him, watching his every move. He went on to tell a story to the guests around the table. Noticing how each had tried to elbow into the place of honor, he said, “When someone ...read more

    The Blessings Of Hardships

    Contributed by Fr. Rian Adams on Aug 26, 2019
     | 5,510 views

    Jesus said he came to, "send fire on the earth." This sermon takes a unique approach on this idea and uses the fire metaphor as a purging of the things inside us that hinder us from becoming who we can be through God.

    The Blessing of Hardships Since this Gospel reading is intense, I thought I’d begin by admitting something kind of funny about it. When I read it this week, I pictured Jesus at a Charlie Daniels concert singing, “Fire on the mountain run boys run.” It also made me wonder, “… how am I supposed ...read more

    Compassion Changes Conditions

     | 5,762 views

    A sermon on how compassion changed the woman with the crooked spine, and how the synagogue ruler's religiosity resisted kindness. Compassion should always win.

    Compassion Changes Conditions I cried when I read the hunchback of Notre Dame. Victor Hugo’s novel is one that stays with you your whole life because we see pieces of each character in ourselves. In the beginning, we meet Quasimodo, the hunchback of Notre Dame. It is the Festival of Fools in ...read more

    On the last day of Jesus' time with his disciples before the Triduum, Jesus accepts the journey God has given him

    (John 13:1-17) O Lord, we pray, speak in this place, in the calming of our minds and in the longing of our hearts, by the words of my mouth and in the thoughts we form. Speak, O Lord, for your servants listen. Amen. At the gate at the entrance of Jerusalem you can look up and see an ...read more

    What is in our lives that 'cripples' us from receiving the blessings from Jesus

    Luke 13:10-17 For many years there has been a saying that I have been using. I learned it in business and it has become my tenth beatitude: “Blessed are the flexible for they shall not be bent out of shape.” We hear in the Gospel today that the woman was bent out of shape. ...read more

    Debemos estar en un estado de lectura constante para el regreso de los Lores. Esto preocupa a muchos cristianos, pero aunque algunos necesitan cambiar, otros están más preparados de lo que piensan y necesitan saber.

    Este sermón fue entregado Gordon McCulloch a la congregación en Holy Trinity en Ayr, Ayrshire, Escocia, el 11 de agosto de 2019; Holy Trinity es una iglesia episcopal escocesa en las diócesis de Glasgow y Dumfries. El sermón también se ha traducido al español usando ...read more
