Sermons on rooted in grace (Page 25)
Deep Commitments
We celebrated the renewal of our Baptismal vows and our Deep Commitments in worship. Matt’s message is rooted in Matthew 23.1-12. How will you root your life in Grace, grow in faith, reach in love, & give generously in the year ahead? How will the waters of baptism shape your faith and life?
Celebration of Baptism
We celebrated the Baptism of 9 adults and 6 children in worship. Matt’s message is rooted in Matthew 22.34-40. Our Baptismal liturgy is based on Marcia McFee’s Water Liturgy.
Save Me
Matt’s message invites reflection on rooting our lives in Grace at The Table. How will we root our lives in Grace in the year to come? What next steps will we take in worship as The Table continues to make room for everyone? This is the first week of a five-week series called How Deep? The message is rooted in Matthew 14.22-33.
Masterpiece
Matt’s message is rooted in Jesus’ turning water to wine at the wedding at Cana in Galilee (John 2.1-11). God is our master artist and you are God’s masterpiece. What kind of art will you leave behind here at The Table? This is the fourth week in a four-week series based on The Artisan Soul: Crafting Your Life into a Work of Art by Erwin McManus.
Who Told You You Were Naked?
Linda’s message is rooted in Genesis 3.1-11. What voices have shaped our identities and our lives? Who told you you were naked? This is the second week in a four-week series based on The Artisan Soul: Crafting Your Life into a Work of Art by Erwin McManus.
Artisan Soul

Jesus’ Call to Sabbath
Matt’s message is rooted in Matthew 11.28-30 and invites reflection on Jesus’ relationship to Sabbath. This is the third week in a three-part series on Summer Sabbath. Jesus invites his followers, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” What might it look like for us to find rest in Christ?
Remember the Sabbath Day
Linda’s message is rooted in Exodus 20.1-8 and is the second of a three-week series on Sabbath as Resistance. What might we learn from the command God makes upon God’s people to remember the Sabbath and keep it holy?
Resistance and Sabbath
We had technical difficulties, so the sound quality on this podcast is not optimal. We apologize for the sound levels. In the aftermath of a white police officer killing an unarmed black teenager named Michael Brown in Ferguson, MO, Matt’s message invites reflection on how Sabbath might call us to ways of resistance as followers of Jesus. The message is rooted in Genesis 2.1-3 and is the first of a three-week series on Sabbath as Resistance.
Testimony
Matt’s message is rooted in Psalm 139 and the Thomas Long’s Testimony: Talking Ourselves into Being Christian. How do we reclaim Jesus’ call to witness to our faith? This is the first week in a four-week series called Talking Ourselves into Being Christian.
Independence, Sin, & Repentance
Linda’s message is rooted in Romans 7.15-25 and the writings of George Tinker, an American Indian theologian who teaches at Iliff Seminary. What might Native Americans teach us about US independence and how does Paul’s understanding of sin inform our need for repentance? This is the fourth week of our five-week worship series on the World Cup: Rhythms of Faith from Around the World.
Forgiven Forgivers
Matt’s message is rooted in the exclusion of Hagar and Ishmael by Sarah and Abraham (Genesis 21.8-21) and the writings of Miroslav Volf of Croatia. How does our understanding of God through Christ form us as forgiven forgivers? This is the third week of our five-week worship series on the World Cup: Rhythms of Faith from Around the World.
