    Good Shepherd Sunday - Hearing the voice of God

    The Shepherd’s Voice It's hard to communicate. You’d think with texts and twitter it would be easier, but it’s more complicated than ever.

     | 3,404 views

    This sermon plays on Jesus's story of "bigger barns" as winning the lottery

    What Will You Do if You Win the Lottery? The lesson this morning is about greed, which is not the easiest subject to preach. Especially when we’re going to ask for your money when the offering plate comes around in a few mins. I noticed something about greed, it is almost like a fog. Fog is ...read more

     | 6,008 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.

    The Blessings Of Hardships

    Contributed by Fr. Rian Adams on Aug 26, 2019
     | 6,120 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

    This is a sermon about Lazarus and the rich man who passed him at his gate. The theme is to clear our spiritual eyes to see the needs around us and act to help the ones in need.

    Clean your glasses: Seeing those in need I heard something kind of funny last week about our eyesight changing. When I visited a family member, there was a cartoon clipping on the refrigerator that read, “I don’t stress about my eyesight failing as I get older. It’s God’s way of protecting me from ...read more

    Faith And Forgiveness.

    Contributed by Fr. Rian Adams on Oct 7, 2019
     | 3,652 views

    This sermon is how faith "the size of a mustard seed" actually gives us the ability to offer forgiveness to others.

    "Faith and Forgiveness" Allow me to begin today with some self-disclosure: I do not understand exactly what faith is, or how it works. But I have a couple of ideas from the lesson that might be helpful. More on that in a moment, but first I’ve got to share some humor. Have you ever ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,571 views

    This message is a exposition of the Parable of the Prodigal. The message demonstrates how rich the parable is and how the Middle Eastern context adds to our understanding of the meaning and application of the three main characters of the parable.

    The Parable of the Lost Sons Luke 15: 11-32 Introduction – Going to Cyprus for an extended stay of 3 months when I was 3yrs old back in 1963, I experienced village life that plunged me into a context that in some ways probably resembled something of the village setting of the parable of the ...read more
