Why Do You Seek The Living Among the Dead?

a sermon for Easter Day

Christ died to teach us how to be fully human, transcending our fears with love.  God raised Jesus from the dead to fashion us into a holy people, who responds to the pain and terror of the world with love.

The Parable of the Lost Sons

a sermon for the 4th Sunday in Lent

The younger son left and squandered all he was give.  The older son dolefully stayed behind, working for something that was already his. Both of them lost the fullness of life which God intends for us.
