It’s how you finish that matters

Sermon 27 September 2020 (Proper 21)

It’s how you finish that matters by Fr. Dana

Simple Summary:  You must own – take responsibility for – your sin; you can’t blame anyone else. To own your sin, you must recognize it as sin, which requires that you know God and His ways. To know God, to receive the Gospel – the “good news” – you must acknowledge the bad news: you need a Saviour.
But receiving the Gospel is not a one-time event. Jesus shows us that saying “yes” once may have no meaning whatsoever. It’s not about how you start, but how you finish your life!

Lectionary: Ezekiel 18:1-4,25-32; Psalm 25:1-22; Philippians 2:1-4; Matthew 21:23-32

Referenced Scriptures: John 9:1-3; John 5:14; Matthew 6:33; Matthew 16:25-26; Romans 12:2

Your responsibility to respond

Sermon 13 September 2020 (Proper 19)

Your responsibility to respond by Fr. Dana

Simple Summary:  Today’s Scriptures are consistent in message: don’t hold a grudge, don’t treat others as their sins deserve, don’t judge your brother or sister, do forgive them. God is preparing the roots of His Church for amazing ministry, and time is short. If we do not respond to God’s call He will allow us to walk away; if we do respond and obey, He will provide all we need in abundance!

Lectionary: Genesis 50:15-21; Psalm 103:1-13; Romans 14:9-12; Matthew 18:21-35

Referenced Scriptures: Romans 8:28-29; Matthew 5:7; Luke 6:37-38; Romans 14:1; James 2:13; Luke 6:31; Luke 13:6-9; John 6:63-64,66; Matthew 21:29; Matthew 4:18-20; John 1:43-51; Matthew 8:19-20; Matthew 8:21-22; Luke 18:22-23; 2 Corinthians 9:7-8

Turn!

Sermon 06 September 2020 (Proper 18)

Turn! by Fr. Dana

Simple Summary:  The watchman tells it like it is: something is not right in God’s people. Ezekiel is working with believers, not heathens, not the lost. “Our sins are killing us – we can’t save ourselves!” What is the solution? “Turn!” Or, as Paul speaks to the Romans, “Wake up from your slumber”. And a second point: reconciling with a brother or sister who has sinned is one way of living out Jesus’ parable of the shepherd seeking a sheep who is lost.

Lectionary: Ezekiel 33:7-11; Psalm 119:33-40; Romans 13:8-14; Matthew 18:12-20

Referenced Scriptures: Galatians 3:23-25; Hebrews 5:12-14; Matthew 16:19
