The LORD, the LORD, is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation." 3 With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation. 4 In that day you will say: "Give thanks ...read more

    The character of both John and Jesus is one that compels us to give from our heart rather than from our excess. This is more than money, but a life of service.

    Preparing for Christmas means more than just shopping for presents and putting up the decorations. It means opening our hearts and lives to the working of the Holy Spirit. This is a sermon for Advent 3, Year B.

    The Promised One is Coming! Well, there are only 11 more shopping days until Christmas. Are you prepared?

    On this “Baptism of Jesus” Sunday we might very well ask what John asked. Why did Jesus need to be baptized? Like John it is also good for us to see our need for baptism by Jesus.

    John the Baptist. That name brings powerful images to mind. Camel’s hair clothes held together with a leather belt. Grasshoppers dipped in wild honey for a sweet and crunchy meal. Saying the morally right thing at the socially wrong time. John was the one who called the people who came to hear ...read more

    We need to be prepared and we need to prepare those around us for the coming of the Lord.

    It’s interesting on a day like today how you can look back on the past 3 years and think it seems like no time at all. But then as you think about it some more, so much has happened in those 3 years that it feels like Camille has always been here. I mean it’s hard to believe that Camille and Rob ...read more
