The Keys Of The Kingdom

Contributed by Bishop Prof. Julius Soyinka on Aug 28, 2012

Contributed by Ken Sauer on Jan 21, 2015

Why do people not follow?

"Fishing for People" Mark 1:14-20 Do we make it seem too easy? Do we not give enough explanation? Or perhaps, do people have an inkling of how difficult it is, and therefore make the decision to either "put it off," ignore it, or say "No. I refuse to believe it," when in reality the refusing ...read more

Unity Of The Church - Sermon For Proper 16 - Year A

Contributed by Ian Bullock on Aug 19, 2020

An challenging exploration of what it means to be the church here and now. This is a re-work of a much older sermon of mine, which feels as relevant now as it did years ago. The analogy was used from another source, although I cannot now remember where that source is.

In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen. Throughout the Gospels we see Jesus involved in situations where a number of profound questions are asked. Questions such as Pilate asking what is truth, or what is power, and today our Gospel leaves us with another when he asks his ...read more

Share With Me

Contributed by Larry Grant on Oct 15, 2022

The world capitalized on our fears. Whether it’s the floods, fires or foreign interference in our elections, war in the East or the attempted overthrow of our government, Paul teaches, “Fear is NOT of GOD!” For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and a sound mind.

2 Timothy 1:7-9 (NKJV) “SHARE WITH ME” October 16, 2022 Summary: Timothy was a young man who was being mentored by Paul.

Don't Offend My Children, Or Else

Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Sep 21, 2021

Even as Jesus suffered offense at the hands of others, every Christian shall likewise suffer. How we respond to this offense is important.

Don't Offend MY Children, or Else! Mark 9:38-50 It is a bit odd that this week’s gospel text from the lectionary begins with John’s response to what Jesus had just said. It is poor practice to start in the middle of a paragraph. Before we can analyze this text, we need to ask: “What was John ...read more
