Sermon 29 May 2022 (Easter 7)

Then the world will know the Father sent Me by Fr. Dana

Simple Summary:  Today’s readings begin with Paul and Silas choosing God’s will over their own, and end with Jesus praying that we all – we Christians, the Church – would be one. In these we see purpose behind all this as well as an example of how it is achieved.

Sermon 22 May 2022 (Easter 6)

What is a church? A deeper understanding by Fr. Dana

Simple Summary:  What is a local church? There are many ways used in Scripture to describe what a church is and what it is called to do. But in practical terms, how – in our day and the culture in which find ourselves – how do we live out what the living Word and the Holy Spirit call us to be?

You are not what you have not become

Sermon 15 May 2022 (Easter 5)

You are not what you have not become by Fr. Dana

Simple Summary:  “You are not what you have not become” – Gregory of Nyssa (335-394 A.D.) In recent years we’ve seen great changes in the world and in our lives; in coming years even greater changes will come. If we follow the Holy Spirit even when He leads us in a direction we would rather not go; if we trust in God’s surpassing greatness over our own thoughts and desires; if we allow Christ to prepare us for service and ministry during the challenging times that are to come – then we will not only bear the “peaceable fruit of righteousness” but lasting fruit for the kingdom.

Lectionary:  Acts 13:44-52; Psalm 145:1-21; Revelation 21:1-6; John 13:31-35

Referenced Scriptures: John 11:48; 1 Timothy 2:4; Romans 12:3; Matthew 7:21-23; Galatians 6:3; 2 Corinthians 13:5; Matthew 26:39; Hebrews 12:1-11; Matthew 13:23

Walking through the valley, or living in it?

Sermon 08 May 2022 (Easter 4)

Walking through the valley, or living in it? by Fr. Dana

Simple Summary:  The Jewish religious leaders knew the prophecies about Messiah. The people expected His coming to bring prosperity and security. But they did not recognize the Messiah because He didn’t meet their expectations, and as a result they did to the Messiah exactly those things which Scripture warned they would do! This is still true, so we must distinguish the fiery darts of the wicked one before we can extinguish them!

Lectionary:  Acts 13:26-39; Psalm 23:1-6; Revelation 7:9-14; John 10:22-30

Referenced Scriptures: Isaiah 53:3-12; Psalm 22:1-18; 1 John 2:15-16; Matthew 7:13-15; Matthew 24:24; 2 Corinthians 5:14; John 18:37; Ephesians 6:16

Sermon 01 May 2022 (Easter 3)

A Doer or a complainer? by Fr. Dana

Simple Summary:  Saul (soon to be Paul) was chosen from all the Pharisees, Sadducees, scribes, and other religious authorities who opposed Jesus. He was unique among them, and he was chosen for a personal encounter with the Lord. Why?

Lectionary:  Acts 9:1-16; Psalm 30; Revelation 5:11-13; John 21:1-14

Referenced Scriptures: Luke 5:30; Matthew 15:2; Luke 7:39; Mark 2:7; Luke 13:14; Matthew 11:19; John 5:18; Matthew 23:27; Acts 18:24-28; James 1:22
