Your Servant Is Listening

Contributed by Sherm Nichols on Mar 25, 2016

A sermon that considers the 2-way nature of prayer, rather than just approaching it as a time for God to listen to us.

Hearing More Clearly From God Series

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jan 14, 2018

The story of the boy Samuel provides clues to hear more clearly from God: we need to cultivate our environment, obey with what we do know God wants, and listen with a servant's heart. In doing so, we set ourselves up to be better listeners and obeyers.

Is God Calling You?

Contributed by Ezekiel Ette on Jan 14, 2018

We all were called to serve God through the works of our hands and our intellect. No matter what we do, we are responding to our calling. God still calls each of us but we do not know how to receive God's message because we do not recognize the call.

The idea of calling or vocation outside of the priesthood is a protestant idea that came with the reformation. It was believed then, as at now, that we are called to different vocations in life and whatever we do is a result of our obedience to a divine plan. Therefore the carpenter was in service ...read more

Avoid Enslaving Yourself To Sexual Sin Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 10, 2021

St Paul shares the reason serious Christians are most careful to avoid sex with anyone other than his spouse, why sexual sin is always serious: it’s a sin against our very selves.

The overarching theme of today’s sacred scripture is the call of God to the individual, or what we call the “universal call to holiness.” Saint John Paul wrote in 1988: “We come to a full sense of the dignity of the lay faithful if we consider the prime and fundamental vocation that the ...read more
