Sermons


Because we are a community with a strong focus on study, service and community, we deeply appreciate challenging weekly sermons on these topics. (We call them “Promptings.”)

Below is a sampling of sermons offered in recent weeks by our talented and devoted preachers, Jessica Moore and Carl Hilton VanOsdall, as well as others who join us as guest preachers.

“Bless”

Today is the fifth and final Sunday in the Season of Creation. We’ve been looking at our relationship with Creation, and with God through Creation, using the lenses of Prayer, Learning, Action, Advocacy, and Blessing. I’ve been thinking of this as the Path to Re-Connection.

“Act”

Today is the third in a series of five services focused on the Season of Creation.
Kristabeth offered a first prompting on the theme Pray.
Last Sunday, Jessica’s prompting explored Learning, as relates to creation.
Building on prayer and learning, today’s prompting implores us to Act.
