The way of the servant by Fr. Dana
Simple Summary: Everyone agrees there are great problems in our world today. In the world, everyone’s answer to every problem is the same: “Everyone else must give me what I want, what I deserve.” Jesus Christ has already provided the answer to every problem, but His answer is just the opposite of the world’s answer.

Sermon 07 Apr 2019
Press on! by Fr. Dana
Simple Summary: You are called to be like Jesus. You must fight the world, the flesh, and the devil in order to move forward. Trials will come, but joy will follow. Don’t fight only against that which is painful; fight also against selfish pleasures which will hinder your faith far more than any sickness or disease.

Sermon 31 Mar 2019
Confess! by Fr. Dana
Simple Summary: We are greatly blessed when the Lord does not count our sins against us. This is only possible because of Jesus Christ. He paid it all, but there is one thing we must do: we must confess our sins. We have been given the ministry of reconciliation, but we must first be reconciled to one another and to God.

Sermon 24 Mar 2019
Humble yourself! by Fr. Dana
Simple Summary: All sin separates us from God, but the sin of pride is especially deadly. The opposite of pride is humility. We are consistently exhorted to humble ourselves. One key to humbling ourselves is fasting: abstaining from food for a time (and not making up for it afterward). Jesus expects us to fast, just as He expects us to give and to pray. Therefore, humble yourself before the Lord.

Sermon 17 Mar 2019
Act! by Fr. Dana
Simple Summary: If you practise your righteousness to be seen by the world, your reward will be in the world, and your reward will end with the world. Abram made a commitment to God and fulfilled it through his actions, and God Himself was Abram’s reward! But it required more than commitment: it required action.

Sermon 10 Mar 2019

Sermon 06 Mar 2019 Ash Wednesday
Not for the praise of men by Fr. Dana
Simple Summary: Jesus tells us that if we do our good works for the praise of men, then the praise of men is all the reward we will ever receive. Though Jonah eventually did the Lord’s will, his goal was to be praised by men.

Sermon 03 Mar 2019
Commit! by Fr. Dana
Simple Summary: Commit: to promise your loyalty, time, talents, and treasure to something, and to intentionally fulfill that promise through action. Two examples of commitment from Scripture: Shadrach, Meschach, and Abed-Nego; and Ruth to Naomi.
During Lent: Holy Spirit, I commit to allow You to examine and transform my life, even though I do not know where that will take me … because I trust in You..
