Sermon 28 August 2022 (Proper 17)

Are you weary? by Fr. Dana

Simple Summary:  Are you tired? What is wearing you out? Perhaps you’re spending your energy on the wrong things. The Christian life is not about getting what you want, or getting what you think you deserve. So what is it about?

Lectionary: Proverbs 25:6-12; Psalm 112; Hebrews 13:1-8; Luke 14:1,7-14

Referenced Scriptures: Matthew 18:15-17; Acts 17:28; John 1:5; Job 7:1; 2 Corinthians 5:14; Luke 6:38; Matthew 11:29

Whoever confesses Christ before men

Sermon 21 August 2022 (Proper 16)

Whoever confesses Christ before men by Fr. Dana

Simple Summary:  “Therefore whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven.” But this does not mean simply admitting you go to church, or saying that you are a Christian. It means so much more, and especially in these evil and divisive times.

Lectionary: Jeremiah 23:23-29; Psalm 82; Hebrews 12:1-6; Luke 12:49-56

Referenced Scriptures: Luke 12:49-56; Matthew 10:16-39; Acts 7:51-53

Wheat or chaff? His fire is burning

Sermon 14 August 2022 (Proper 15)

Wheat or chaff? His fire is burning by Fr. Dana

Simple Summary:  ‘Let the prophet who has a dream recount the dream, but let the one who has My word speak it faithfully. For what has straw to do with grain?’ declares the Lord. That’s a somewhat different take on the concept of the wheat and the tares. Then He says, ‘Is not My word like fire‘. And then Jesus declares, “I have come to bring fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled!” This is worth taking a deeper look!

Lectionary: Jeremiah 23:23-29; Psalm 82; Hebrews 12:1-6; Luke 12:49-56

Referenced Scriptures: Jeremiah 23:16-22; 2 Peter 1:19-21; Titus 3:10-11; Matthew 3:11-12; Zechariah 13:7-9; Luke 24:32; 2 Peter 1:16

How’s your tent?

07 Sunday Aug 2022

Sermon 07 August 2022 (Feast of Transfiguration)

How’s your tent? by Fr. Dana

Simple Summary:  Peter responded to the Transfiguration of Jesus with, “Let us put up three tents….” It was a very human response to a very beyond-human experience. We can discern some deeper meaning if we look at Jesus’ remarks which were the precursors to this moment. And what’s with the tents?

Lectionary: Exodus 34:29-35; Psalm 99:1-9; 2 Peter 1:13-21; Luke 9:28-36

Referenced Scriptures: Luke 9:23-27; Matthew 22:32; Hebrews 12:1-2; Matthew 17:9; Mark 9:9; Acts 1:8; Luke 2:19; 1 Corinthians 6:19; John 14:2

Is your faith in vain?

01 Monday Aug 2022

Posted by Fr Columcille in Homily, Scripture

Sermon 31 July 2022 (Proper 13)

Is your faith in vain? by Fr. Dana

Simple Summary:  All is vanity, all is meaningless. Solomon, the Psalmist, Paul, and Jesus all have something to say about vanity: pursuing things … building, creating, and accumulating abundance … achieving goals … which in the end are worthless, because they do not fulfil the purpose you desire. Are you living a “good” life in vain?

Lectionary: Ecclesiastes 2:18-23; Psalm 49:1-20; Colossians 3:1-11; Luke 12:13-21

Referenced Scriptures: Matthew 15:9; Romans 3:23; Matthew 6:21; 2 Corinthians 9:6-11; Matthew 25:41-43; Matthew 16:25
