MORNING SERVICE SERMON SERIES

ENCOUNTERING THE RISEN JESUS

Human beings are fragile creatures.  Failure, grief, doubt, and rebellion are all woven into the fabric of human experience.  And yet, it is precisely in these places that the risen Jesus meets us and transforms us.  This is nowhere more obvious than in Jesus’s one-on-one encounters recorded in Scripture after his resurrection.  Join us in April and May as we encounter the risen Jesus and witness how his divine power is made perfect in our weakness.

  • April 7 – Encountering Jesus in Failure (John 21:1-14)
  • April 14 – Confirmation Sunday with the Rt. Rev. Steve Wood
  • April 21 – Encountering Jesus in Grief (Luke 24:13-35)
  • April 28 – Encountering Jesus in Doubt (John 20:24-29)
  • May 5 – Encountering Jesus in Rebellion  (Acts 9:1-22)

EVENING SERVICE SERMON SERIES

THE PARABLES OF JESUS: MARK CHAPTER 4

A good parable is a work of art, and Jesus used them constantly in his teaching about the Kingdom of God. The Gospel of Mark characterizes Jesus as a parable maker: ‘He did not say anything to them without using a parable’. He used these stories to promise, command, warn, forgive encourage, inform, condemn, argue and ultimately proclaim about the coming kingdom and how to live in light of it. Jesus’ teaching is as exciting and important today as it was in his own time, if we will listen. He said: ‘He who has ears to hear, let him hear’ (Mk 4:9). Join us on Sunday evenings as we explore the parables of Mark 4.

 

  • April 14 – Mark 4:1-20
  • April 21 – Mark 4:21-25
  • April 28 – Mark 4:26-34

RECENT SERMONS AND TALKS

Rev. Dr. John Yates III - October 17, 2021

Sermon: God's Chosen Dwelling

Scripture References: John 14:15-27

From Series: "Why Church? God's Purpose for His People."

Life during the pandemic has raised lots of questions about the Church, such as, “Can we stay home, sip coffee, watch the Sunday service and call it “worship?” During this same season, a number of scandals have rocked the Church – from sexual misconduct to the abuse of power by clergy. What’s going on? Has the Church lost its way? Have we forgotten who we are or what it means to be God’s people? Perhaps the most important question we should ask is simply, “Why Church?” This fall we will explore who we are, why we’re here and how God wants us to live together.
