A sermon about saying "Yes" to God.

“May Your Word Be Fulfilled in Me” Luke 1:26-38 It sometimes seems like Mary has been turned into an inkblot test. What do I mean by that? An inkblot test is based on the idea that the subject's mind will impose meaning on the image of the inkblot, and that what they say about the ...read more

We expect others to stop at stop signs. In fact, we have a lot of expectations about how others should act. Our days are full of ...read more
