    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,438 views

    The Epiphany is all about the divinity of Jesus being revealed to the world; but not everyone like this news. This is a very interesting story with a variety of characters: eg. compare the characters of Jesus with Herod.

    This sermon was delivered to St Oswald’s, Maybole, Ayrshire, Scotland on the 8th January 2012; St Oswald’s is a Scottish Episcopal Church in the Dioceses of Glasgow and Dumfries. The readings for today are: Isaiah 60:1-6 Ephesians 3:1-12 Matthew 2:1-12 Psalm ...read more

  • Epiphany Revives Our Excitement For Salvation

    Contributed by Daniel Habben on Jan 5, 2014
     | 3,220 views

    Does the message of Jesus sound like a tired old re-run? It shouldn't! The Apostle Paul explains why not.

    The hit show Breaking Bad ended its run late last year with a grand finale viewed by 10.3 million people. That’s nowhere near Super Bowl viewing numbers. Last year 108 million people watched the Ravens top the 49’s, but for a show that started with just a million viewers, ending with ...read more

  • Responding To Disappointments: A Star And A Stable (Epiphany)

    Contributed by Fr. Rian Adams on Jan 20, 2020
     | 3,265 views

    Difficulties are part of life, how we respond is what makes the difference. Joseph and Mary faced the difficulty of being refugees in the land of Egypt in order to save the child Jesus from Herod. The "ah ha" moment is when we realize God is with us no matter where we find ourselves.

    Stars and a Stable: Responding to Disappointments One of my closest friends loves UGA! He’s a graduate and a dedicated football loyalist. Now let’s not question his Christianity just yet. He has a saying, "When I die, make sure you chant the Eucharist at my funeral mass. And make sure the ...read more

  • The Art Of Listening: Last Sunday Of Epiphany

     | 5,043 views

    The Rev. Rian Adams. This sermon on the transfiguration encourages people to actively listen to God.

    The Art of Listening The Rev. Rian Adams Peter is my favorite disciple. Not because he was perfect; God knows he was far from it. He spoke first and listened to others last. In the Gospels, he is as an overconfident loud-mouth, and he cannot contain himself, his ego needs an audience for his ...read more

  • Patience And Perseverance (Epiphany 4 Candlemas)

    Contributed by Fr. Rian Adams on Apr 6, 2020
     | 3,690 views

    The readings of Simeon and Anna speak of Jesus being presented in the temple as a child. Each character are examples of patience and perseverance.

    Patience and Perseverance Epiphany 4 Candlemas When I was a kid, my least favorite Church service of the year occurred on Super Bowl Sunday. You see, I grew up in a pastor's home, and my grandfather's church had a Sunday night service every week. I wanted to watch the Super Bowl instead of ...read more

     | 5,989 views

    Epiphany challenges us to think about who we might consider to be unworthy and how we, the Church, might reach out to them in Christian love.

    “The Challenge of Epiphany” Matthew 2:1-12 What image comes to your mind when you think of the Magi in Matthew’s Gospel? Having sat through a number of Christmas plays, it may be hard for us not to think of children wearing bathrobes and Burger King crowns, trying to look as important as ...read more

  • The Epiphany Of The Lord-- The Divine Light Within

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Dec 31, 2021
     | 2,484 views

    The only evidence the Magi had as they entered the shabby surroundings of a manger was that this baby was being shined on by a star.

    I saw a comic strip recently about the star that guided the magi from the east. The star is nervous and sweating while placing a desperate 911 call, saying: “Operator, these three men on camels have been following me all night! I stop, they stop. I go, they go. I’m so scared….” The epiphany is ...read more

    It is good to follow the crowds who listen to the Gospel, but it is better to follow the Jesus whom we preach!

    THE MESSAGE FROM THE RIVER JORDAN. Mark 1:1-15. There is a huge geological fault in the earth’s surface separating ancient Judah from the mountains of Moab. Viewed from the villages around Bethlehem, it appears like a great chasm. The River Jordan flows along the bottom of the valley, feeding ...read more

    The in-gathering of Israel, and of the nations.

    PRECIOUS IN HIS SIGHT, AND LOVED. Isaiah 43:1-7. This beautiful poem is a love letter.

    Although this is a rewrite of Tom Long’s Sermon, published in 1987, I believe it offers a new perspective. 4th Sunday after Epiphany, series B

    based on 7 ratings
     | 15,508 views

    We cannot change the past: but in Christ, God restores to us what would have been had we not allowed sin an entrance (Joel 2:25).

    AN OVERVIEW OF THE BOOK OF JOEL. Joel 1-3. The name Joel means ‘Yahweh is God’ or perhaps ‘Whose God is the LORD’. There is no doubt that Joel's God is the LORD: not only on account of his given name, but also because of his courage in confronting Israel and the nations with a far-reaching ...read more

    Coming back to our senses in the far country.

    THE PRODIGAL SON. Luke 15:1-3, Luke 15:11-32. ‘Horror of horrors!’ proclaimed the scribes and Pharisees. The tax-collectors and ‘sinners’ were drawing near to hear the words of Jesus!

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 5, 2022
    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,700 views

    Man in sin is lost, whether he is aware of it or not. Jesus came to seek that which was lost. The testimony of Christians is, I once was lost, but now am found.

    A LOST SHEEP AND A LOST COIN. Luke 15:1-10. In the first parable of today’s reading we see the caring shepherd. He left his ninety-nine other sheep in order to seek the one that was lost, until he had found it. This is an image which is familiar from both the Old Testament and the New Testament: ...read more
