Sermons on Mark
Discovering God Inside Us All
The purpose of life is more than work, it is shared, and that changes us. The sabbath was created for humans. Don’t let our hearts become hardened. If we love God, we must love who God loves … everyone.
I Need You to Invent Some Hope
Empire thrives on division and discord. Jesus calls us to build a world where things get better. James Baldwin said, “Hope is invented everyday.” That is exactly what Jesus calls us to do. We are not alone. When people gather, empire gets nervous.
Compassion Fuels Empathy
Remember your past. Use your experiences to fuel your empathy for others.
It’s No Small Thing
God wants everyone to have what they need. No bullying. No intimidation.
Are We Hypocrites?
Do we want to help others or are we unwilling to build relationships? Jesus invites us to walk a new walk.
Caged Birds
Jesus crossed boundaries to restore us to our whole selves.
When the Front Door is Blocked
Persistence and faith can only take us so far. Sometimes, we need someone to carry us.
Pick Me
God chooses us and wants us for who we truly are. Once we realize that, we choose to be with God, too. That means loving who God loves.
Resurrection
The real story is how the resurrected carpenter affected the lives of those who followed him. Easter is always happening, Jesus is still changing peoples lives.
When We Get Together… God is with Us
Fear can cause the message of God’s Love and Peace to be lost. Yet, God is with us, so we do not need to be afraid. God loves us.
