What does it feel like to touch Jesus’ clothes? What does it feel like to have power come out from you?

Our Gospel today is about two people who came to Jesus for help with a medical problem. “My left arm hurt me,” said a senior citizen, “and so did my right foot, my neck and my back. Then I went to the doctor and he tapped my knee with a little hammer.” “So how are you now?” asked a friend. “Now ...read more

No Grinch can take away the true meaning of Christmas, because Jesus was born for us! (uses refernces from Dr. Seuss’ How The Grinch Stole Christmas).

Dr. Seuss’ How The Grinch Stole Christmas has always been a favorite of mine, but this year, it has also made quite a box office splash. In this annual Christmas story, the old Grinch who lives on a mountain has been annoyed by the merriment of the Who-ville townspeople at Christmas. According to ...read more

based on 91 ratings

The life of faith is low-profile. We minimize ourselves so that God can be magnified and glorified. Contrasts showy piety and quiet faith actions.

Today is Ash Wednesday, the first day in Lent, the season of the church year during which we focus our attention on our devotion to God before Easter. Ash Wednesday gives us an unusual opportunity to focus on our mortality and our sin. These are not popular topics, nor issues that we like to ...read more

Responding to Sept 11th and a (minor) break-in to our church building, this sermon focuses on how live Jesus’ call to do unto others as we would have them do to us.
