    For anyone who wants to know God, the church is essential.

    Let’s imagine it’s sometime this afternoon. You’re at home, working in the front yard, and you see a moving van stop a couple of houses down the street.

     | 1,021 views

    Main Idea: Favoritism goes against God's heart for His creation. We are challenged to see people as God sees them and to live out our faith through acts of love and service, especially towards those society often overlooks.

    Hey guys, today we're going to talk about something we all see around us - favoritism. You know, when someone gets special treatment because of how they look, what they wear, or who they know. It's not cool, right? Well, guess what? God thinks so too. Let's dive into James 2:1-17. James, who was ...read more

    Reflecting on Joseph of Arimathaea’s courage in stepping forward to bury Jesus, the sermon encourages Christians to be bold and courageous today.

    In the Episcopal Church, today is the feast day of Joseph of Arimathaea, one of the more obscure New Testament characters. All that is known for certain about Joseph comes from the Gospel narratives of Jesus’ burial. Though John speaks of Joseph as a secret disciple of our Lord, and associates ...read more

    Freedom is purchased by great sacrifice and maintained by those who stand ready to be sacrificed. Today we owe our freedom to men and women such as these and we pause to honor them and to remember and reflect on their sacrifices both past and present.

    Ripple Effect Of Our Decisions

     | 5,967 views

    Often times, we can make a decision and it will have a ripple effect. Vashti made a decision and it set in motion an incredible ripple effect.

    I have often read about Queen Vashti and have felt that she does not get mentioned as much as she should. We often read the Book of Esther and focus on many important people, good and evil, in the book but we rarely talk about Vashti. It is her one decision to reject the earthly king's request ...read more

    She was probably a single mom with a special needs child, and she desperately needed Jesus’ help.

    20A She was probably a single mom with a special needs child, and she desperately needed Jesus’ help. Jesus’ reaction to this desperate woman’s request is quite interesting. The truth is, he didn’t respond at all. His disciples certainly did not want anything to do with the woman, i.e. “Please ...read more
