Faithing & Patience
26 Jul, 2023
Think of it as pure joy, my sisters and brothers, whenever you face trials of any sort. You understand that your faith is put to the test only to make you patient, but patience too has its practical results – it’s to make you fully mature and...
Faithing
17 Jul, 2023
Six weeks or so ago I sketched out my sermon topics through the end of the year. Frankly, I was pretty proud of myself. And I thought the series on “resistance” went fairly well, if I do say so myself. But I’ve been dreading this series on...
Small Acts of Resistance
10 Jul, 2023
We’ve talked about the Spirituality of Resistance for three weeks now: Resisting Personal Bias, The Power of Resisting Together, and Counter-Cultural Resistance. Because we can find ourselves overwhelmed by the magnitude of things that need to...
Counter-Cultural Resistance
05 Jul, 2023
In the wake of the violence and riots in Kenosha that followed the death of George Floyd in August of 2020, the Sacred Journeys' board spent much time discussing a way to respond, what could be said, and who the response would be released to...
The Power of Resisting Together
26 Jun, 2023

This week we're beginning a sermon series on the Spirituality of Resistance. That may sound odd to some of you, but if you consider Jesus for a moment, he was a resistor. He resisted exclusion, injustice, empire, violence, prejudice, religious...
Longing for Wholeness
12 Jun, 2023
Yesterday's message on the woman at the well in John 4 was the last in a series on the Nameless in the Gospels. I preached this sermon "in character" as the woman to help us to think more deeply about who she was, what her struggles might be...
The First Communion
05 Jun, 2023
We’ve heard the story of Jesus feeding the multitude many times which isn’t surprising since the miraculous meal clearly occupied a central place in the oral tradition about Jesus. It is the only miracle story found in all four gospels (Matthew...
Standing Tall
30 May, 2023
Who is the bent-over woman in Luke 13? Just another nameless character in the gospels who point to the extraordinary abilities of Jesus? I don't think so. I think it is time she received due recognition as an archetype of strength and...
Facing Forward
22 May, 2023
So, we continue our series on The Nameless in the Gospels with a story that involves three nameless travelers in Luke 9. In this story, we have three interactions between Jesus and some travelers. The first traveler says “I’ll follow you...
