    Feast of St. Lucy 2018 The constant temptation human beings face is to turn God’s intention for man upside down.

    For Remembrance Sunday, when we honor the memories of those who have died in the previous year: Those who suffer loss go to a better place emotionally when they cast off unproductive patterns and allow themselves time to receive unconditional love. They

    There is something we say to console ourselves when someone dies. It is a phrase I have heard over and over. We say,“I know she is in a better place.” My friend, my parent, my spouse has passed away, but it feels good to think of one truth: “He is in a better place.” By that, of course, ...read more

     | 2,686 views

    The point is this–God will forgive any sin, any offense. Nothing will make Him so angry as not to forgive. Unless. Unless we come to that confession, to that communion, with an unforgiving heart.

    Twenty-First Sunday After Pentecost Extraordinary Form “So also shall my heavenly Father do to you, if you do not forgive–every one of you–forgive your brother from the heart.” From the Holy Gospel according to St. Matthew.

    This sermon unpacks the powerful paradox of John 12:24-25, teaching that like a seed that must die to bear fruit, we must surrender our lives to find true fruitfulness and life eternal.

    Introduction: The Unexpected King Let us transport ourselves to a moment thick with expectation. The city of Jerusalem is trembling with energy.

     | 1,865 views

    As the days draw nearer for the Lord's promised return, more people are choosing the wealth of the world rather than taking care of the most precious commodity they have, and that is their soul. Nothing of this world is worth the loss of eternal life with Christ.

    Some time ago, I watched a series of programs that the BBC (British Broadcasting Company) had produced which centered on a variety of individuals who had encountered the Lord Jesus Christ at some point in their lives yet walked away with nothing more than faint curiosity, some conversation, or ...read more
