Sermons on rooted in grace (Page 25)

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.

Pentecost

Matt’s message is rooted in the story of Pentecost from Acts 2 & Jan Richardson’s Pentecost: This Grace that Scorched Us.

Order of Worship

Linda’s message invites reflection on the history and meaning of our Order of Worship.  Why do we do what we do in worship? What intentions guide our ordering of worship?

Worship, Mission, and the Möbius Strip

Matt’s message is rooted in Acts 17.22-31 and the image of a Möbius strip.  Ruth Myers, a professor of liturgy and worship at Church Divinity School of the Pacific, introduced the Möbius strip in a class on Missional Worship at the Graduate Theological Union.  Matt draws upon the work of Dr. Myers to outline ways of thinking about how worship and mission relate.  How does worship relate to mission for you?

Parable of the Leaven

Linda’s message introduces our new worship series, Give Up Certainty for Lent: Live in the Parables of Jesus. Her message is rooted in the parable of the leaven (Matthew 13).
