    A funeral sermon for Jesus of Nazareth, reflections of Nicodemus the Pharisee. A short Good Friday sermon

    I want to thank you all for coming to my house tonight. I know that it was not easy for you to do so considering the horrible events of this day. I know that you fear the retribution of my fellow Pharisees and for you to bring yourself to the house of a Pharisee on this night of all nights ...read more

    Funeral sermon for Doris Reynolds Parker, veteran teacher, civil rights worker, and mother, whose spirit of determination we can complete if we commit to justice, kindness and a walk with God.

    Perfection is difficult to come by! No matter how good something is, it is always possible to find flaws. It is always possible to discover imperfections. When I was in engineering school, I took a class in drafting. My professor’s claim to fame was that he could, without a compass, ...read more

    Dressed In His Righteousness Alone

    Funeral sermon for Buford Pervall: deacon, usher, church clerk. To know your own value means that you learn to trust God in large matters and you seek positive change.

    Someone once remarked that a cynic is a person who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing. Isn’t that an apt description of our time, when we will pay inflated prices for houses, we will spend $75.00 to fill up our SUV’s, and will hire basketball coaches for forty million dollars ...read more

    What To Say When We Don't Know What To Say - Funeral Sermon

    Contributed by Duane Wente on Jun 30, 2021
     | 13,744 views

    When someone passes away unexpectedly, we often are left without knowing what to say. Through the story of Lazarus' death, we can see some things we can say when we do not know what to say.

    “What to Say When You Don’t Know What to Say” Introduction There are not many times when I am left speechless. I’m often told that I have a tendency to not be quiet and listen — that I actually talk too much. When I first heard of Debbie’s passing, however, I found myself without words to say. ...read more

    We live in a changing world. We see that in politics, economics, and the weather that are constantly changing before us each day.

    But we also see changes in other places, for example: • The FASHION WORLD is constantly changing. • The CAR DESIGNS are constantly changing. • The BANKING INDUSTRY is constantly changing. • The COMMUNICATION in this country is almost changing daily.

    Funeral sermon for Yvan Vital, Haitian freedom fighter. We lose our freedom if we allow ignorance and apathy to take us over; but to learn and to feel is to claim the justice that God will complete.

    I God has made us free. That’s the very essence of what God did when He created us. He made us free. He gave each of His creatures a measure of freedom, limiting them to a degree, of course, but nonetheless free. The eagle that soars in the sky, the great whale that plays in the ocean, the ...read more

    a funeral sermon about godly women who serve Christ and his church.

    In a moment I will read a passage from Rom 16 – but before I read allow me to set it up... Paul is writing a post-script to his grand theological discourse known as the book of Romans ... he is signing-off – the so called chapter 16 - is of a completely different tone... filled with greetings, ...read more

     | 5,723 views

    Funeral sermon for Henry L. Stewart, local resident, known as an amateur artist. The images of the four living creatures in Revelation become metaphors for the stages of life.

    Some look at the earth, but never see the sky. Some see the sky, but never fly. But to some it is given to see and to fly. To some it is given to be an eagle, soaring with strength and power. But I must ask – do you know how empty the eagle is before he flies? From empty to eagle; do you know ...read more

    Funeral sermon for Richard Dean Lewis, a young man who had a great deal of potential, and whose death caused his family to rethink their relationships.

    There is no binding so tight as the one we wind for ourselves. Others may strap you into a seat or use restraints on your hospital bed, but those are never so confining as the bindings with which we confine ourselves. For the bindings we use on ourselves are generally so snug that we cannot ...read more

    A funeral sermon for a 79 year old man who had been afflicted with Parkinson’s disease for the last 18 years of his life, but never wavered from his faith. Perhaps my best sermon yet.

    “Pastor, I wish you could have known Virgil in his younger years, before Parkinson’s took its toll on him.” I’ve heard that said quite a bit by both Virgil’s family members and friends since I came to Audubon last fall. From the things I’ve heard from his family and others in the community, I ...read more

    A Time To Dance

     | 11,968 views

    Funeral sermon for Vera Byars, court information specialist and amateur dancer. Ballroom, minuet/ballet, tap -- whatever style she used, it all witnessed to a life of joy. This is not any longer a time to mourn.

    I agree with the Scripture, where it says that, “For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven.” I agree with that, because we know that some things are fine, in their place, but they are not appropriate in other places. There is a time and a season for everything, ...read more
