Jesus didn’t ask in a gentle, encouraging sort of way. He said clearly “this is not going to make your life easier.” So why did they stay?
Joining in God’s work of liberation and healing is our business, because Jesus says it is.
What does it look like to follow Jesus? According to our reading today, it certainly has something to do with allowing our plans to be interrupted.
That’s where the idea of the Trinity touches down in our lives: it’s about a God who is not distant and abstract, but utterly committed to being with us.
The Spirit shows up uniquely in each person, Paul says, and each person’s gift is equally important. When we see one another that way, it leads to a totally different sort of community.
If God raised Jesus from the dead—really and truly, at a moment in time—then God is absolutely committed to this world, and to us, and to those all around us.
Jesus’s words of acceptance and grace draw a new and wider circle, a new and wider fold, where there’s room for all.
A sermon preached by Rev. Dr. Kenneth Mtata on 23 April 2023.
Jesus is our ruler, the highest authority in our lives, and we can call out to him with the crowds today: “Hosanna! Save us!”
What does it mean to take the practice of the sabbath, intended for the wellbeing and flourishing of all, and incorporate it into life today? In our own way, we’re asking those same sorts of questions.
We are free to imagine a better world, a world of generosity and compassion and neighborliness. Keeping sabbath—taking regular time to bask in the goodness and givenness of life—reminds us of that fact.
Sermon, 5 March: "Keeping the sabbath holy," by Andy Willis by Geneva Lutheran
Sermon, 26 February: "Time to exhale," by Andy Willis by Geneva Lutheran
A sermon given on Transfiguration Sunday, 19 February 2023, by Rev. Dr. Wesley Ariarajah.
Paul meant for the church to be a community where, around the cross, we might actually discover the grace in our differences.
Through the lens of the cross, God has shown us what really matters: laying down our weapons, including those left out, setting a bigger table, standing together in love.
Sermon, 29 January: "The strange word of the cross," by Andy Willis by Geneva Lutheran
It’s like those disciples back on the shore, leaving their nets. This wasn’t their idea; this wasn’t their club to form however they wanted to; this wasn’t just another reflection of the culture around them. No—this was Jesus’s idea.
Yes, you are holy, Paul says; but you’re also not done yet. You’re not all you’re ever going to be. You’re called to be saints.
A sermon on Matthew 3:13-17, preached on 8 January, commemorating the baptism of Christ.
