    March 8th, 2026 Sermon -- "The Parable of the Wedding Feast"
    Mar 9 2026

    The Parables of Jesus, Part 2: The Parable of the Wedding Feast

    We'll look at Matthew 22:1-14. One congregation member came up to me afterward and said that she had never heard a sermon preached on this parable. I'm not surprised. It might not always come up in the lectionary on a given year and it does not have the most pleasant moral: "Many are invited, few are chosen."

    Let's dig in!

    The Parables of Jesus, Part 1: The Workers in the Vineyard

    I will be reflecting on Matthew 20:1-16. The idea for this series is that I will be focusing on some of the more challenging parables of Jesus.

    This week will examine what governs the Kingdom of God, with some new definitions for justice and grace.

  • February 15th, 2026 Sermon -- "Do Not Be Afraid/Unpacking the Transfiguration"

    February 15th, 2026 Sermon -- "Do Not Be Afraid/Unpacking the Transfiguration"
    Feb 16 2026

    This week's message focuses on the Transfiguration account from Matthew 17:1-9. We'll look at events that take place before the Transfiguration, as the disciples attempt to tell Jesus who He is. We'll then explore the significance of Jesus' encounter with Moses and Elijah on the mountaintop. From there, we'll conclude with exploring why the transfiguration is important to fully understand the Easter season!
