Sermon 31 January 2021 (Epiphany 4)

For a brother or sister in Christ by Fr. Dana

Simple Summary:  Knowing the Word without love profits nothing. Knowledge puffs up, and can actually make one a snare to a brother or sister in Christ. Those in the Body of Christ with stronger faith have the responsibility to protect and fight for those with weaker faith – whatever it takes.

Lectionary:  Deuteronomy 18:15-20; Psalm 111; 1 Corinthians 8:1-13; Mark 1:21-28

Referenced Scriptures:  Matthew 16:16; 1 Corinthians 13:2-3; 1 Corinthians 12:26; Mark 2:3-4

Love is far more than a candle

Sermon 24 January 2021 (Epiphany 3)

Love is far more than a candle by Fr. Dana

Simple Summary:  We missed meeting as a church from the 4th Sunday of Advent through Epiphany Sunday due to my contracting Covid. It was sad but necessary to guard the health of our parishioners. We missed Advent 4, the lighting of the Love candle, and Christmas Eve, the lighting of the Christ candle – and Christ is love incarnate. But love is far more than a candle, and the church (both the worldwide Church and individual local churches) is far more than a fellowship or a family….

Lectionary:  Jonah 3:1-10; Psalm 62:1-12; 1 Corinthians 7:29-31; Mark 1:14-20 (sermon not from lectionary)

Referenced Scriptures:  2 Corinthians 5:14-15; Matthew 28:19-20; 1 Corinthians 12; Proverbs 27:6; Luke 13:6-9
