Sermon: Wednesday, February 14, 2018: Ash Wednesday

It is never too late to live like you are really alive, which somehow is easier to do when you remember that you too are dust, and to dust you shall return.

Sermon: Sunday, July 23, 2017: Seventh Sunday after Pentecost

Love breaks down the market forces that turn everything and everyone into a commodity. By love we adopt one another into our families, into our hearts. We invest without concern for return on investment, so that when love’s dividends are finally paid we are glad to immediately give them away, reinvesting them in one another.

Sermon: Sunday, March 12, 2017: Second Sunday in Lent

How would our lives change if we knew in every cell of our bodies that God is for us? That God longs to be the place we stand on the days when our feet are sore, so much so that God created all the soil and all the earth, so that there is no place we can go where we are not standing in God’s presence.
