  • Listening With Love

    Contributed by Fr. Rian Adams on Dec 22, 2019
     | 1,701 views

    Sermon for Advent 4, Year A. Sermon contrasts how Joseph could have treated Mary and how he actually acted toward her. Mary has a story (and thus Jesus) because Joseph listened with love and showed mercy.

    Preparing for 2020: Listening with Love I feel for Joseph. Not only because he’s often overlooked, but in some ways I understand what it’s like to be Joseph. In 1994 I found a new level of solidarity with Joseph. The children’s director concluded that the pastor’s grandson didn’t need a “speaking” ...read more

    You may be retired from secular work, but your work for God has just been enlarged!

    During my meditation and prayer time it came to me that I am not retired, I am in full time ministry!

    based on 2 ratings

    We don’t know very much about Jesus’ process of maturation. The Gospels are rather silent about his growing up years, with Matthew being the only other canonical gospel that even offers a birth narrative, and he is silent on the years between birth and baptism.

    TITLE: THE FAMILY BUSINESS SCRIPTURE: ST. LUKE 2:49 It was just two months ago we gathered here in the sanctuary as we celebrated the birth of our Lord and Savior. We had special programs like Candlelight Service, attended Christmas Sing Along over at Macedonia Baptist Church, and of course ...read more

    The Name of Jesus affects our entire life in Christ!

    I looked online to find the top baby names of 2010. There are a lot of “top 100” lists of baby names --- but the problem is that they don’t agree with each other! Since there is no agreement, I compiled five names that are frequently seen at the top of the 2010 lists for our country: 5 of ...read more

    based on 5 ratings
     | 14,114 views

    It has been said that "you will never walk on water if you do not get out of the boat." And yet, too often we fail to think about the next step. This sermon is meant to encourage those afraid to step out in faith as well as those who are sinking!

    Many centuries ago, a man named Peter stood on the edge of a boat in the Sea of Galilee. Like all people who find themselves on an edge - whether physical or metaphorical - a decision had to be made. Peter’s choice was to either to step out onto the water or remain in the boat. Not an easy ...read more
