Dualism and the Presidential Race

Sermon | July 24, 2016

July 27, 2016, The Rev. Doyt L. Conn, Jr. preaching

God is your Father. God made you. God loves you. God has you because God is hallowed. God is whole, holy, healthy, full, and complete, and in every situation this omnipotent God HAS YOU. And in moments when we aren’t sure about this, when we aren’t sure how to hold the tension between the good and the bad within us, when we aren’t sure how we will keep from collapsing into dualistic, binary, black-and-white thinking, then we pray: Father, hallowed be your name.

Ascension Sunday

Sermon | May 17, 2015

May 17, 2015, The Rev. Kate Wesch (5 pm service)

The disciples’ minds were opened to truly understand Jesus’ teachings. Jesus is ascending and Jesus is blessing us. My assumption is that the disciples understood the next step. And if not, they would in short order when the Holy Spirit came down on Pentecost which we will celebrate next Sunday. Jesus is preparing a place for us to go, but in the meantime, there is much for us to do here on earth.
