DANGER! Being controlled by others’ expectations

Sermon 24 April 2022 (Easter 2) and Reflection by Dcn. Joshua Bautista

DANGER! Being controlled by others’ expectations by Fr. Dana

Simple Summary:  Are you influenced by what other people think of you? Are you driven by what others expect of you? Our whole culture is fixated on controlling people’s lives through the expectations of others. Peter learned how dangerous this is, and it crushed his heart.

Lectionary:  Acts 5:27-32; Psalm 111:1-10; Revelation 1:4-8; John 20:19-31

Referenced Scriptures: Mark 1:34-38; Matthew 16:16-26; Matthew 26:50-58; John 18:10; Matthew 26:69-70; John 21:15-22; Matthew 16:18

We stand at the edge of the Promised Land

Sermon 17 April 2022 (Easter)

We stand at the edge of the Promised Land by Fr. Dana

Simple Summary:  The freeing of the Hebrews from slavery in Egypt through their entry into the Promised Land was a prophetic foretaste of Christ’s work through His incarnation, life, death, resurrection, and ascension. We celebrate today in the light of Christ’s resurrection. He has set us in place to possess all the benefits of His passion, death, and rising again – not as individuals, but as the Church. Giants occupy the land; there will be opposition; it will require battles, and courage, and sacrifice. There will be casualties, but it is the inheritance we have been promised. Will we enter in … or will we refuse?

Lectionary:  Acts 10:34-43; Psalm 118:14-29; Colossians 3:1-4; Luke 24:1-12

Referenced Scriptures: Matthew 16:18

Press on towards the goal

Sermon 03 April 2022 (Lent 5)

Press on towards the goal by Fr. Dana

Simple Summary:  “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past“, “forgetting what is behind and straining towards what is ahead, I press on towards the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenwards in Christ Jesus“, and “Go now and leave your life of sin“. God is making a point … and to leave the past behind and press into God’s future requires the Holy Spirit.

Referenced Scriptures: Matthew 23:37; Matthew 23-25
