I AM

February 18, 2007, 8:45 am

God answers Moses' first two concerns by revealing himself in a new way. While this is not a new name, it does show something about God that hasnt been emphasized as of yet: that Yhwh is a redeeming, recreating, saving, delivering (all mean the same thing) God. This God is personal and powerful and while this tension is difficult to understand, it is important that we recognize and wrestle with it. Jesus, God in flesh, is personal in that he humbled himself but he is powerful for when he says "I am" people fall over. He demands that we understand who he is: not a great moral teacher, but the LORD, God of the Universe. Part of the Exodus series.

Mysterium Tremendum: Moses Meets the Holy

February 11, 2007, 8:46 am

This sermon is about the call of Moses. It is about something common being made holy and what happens when something common meets The Holy. It reminds us of the tension between trembling in front of a holy God and remembering that it is our Father. Part of the Exodus series.

Living in Tents

February 4, 2007, 8:47 am

We moved away from our Exodus series to mourn the passing of a beloved previous pastor. Jack Reynolds died this past week and our congregation was feeling the loss. The sermon was on death and it reminded us that while our bodies (tent) are weak and fragile, God has given them a tremendous purpose in this world. It emphasized the great promise that God has for our body, that it will be raised and made new. Part of the select series.

A Hero Rejected

January 28, 2007, 8:47 am

Moses fights three battles back to back foreshadowing his role as King. He is protector of Israel, protector of the innocent and protector of the weak. Even though he is about to given the role as ruler and judge over the people, he is continuously rejected. Jesus was also a warrior hero and he was rejected. We too must be heros in this world for justice and stand up for truth. But like Moses and Jesus we will be rejected. But that is our calling and we should rejoice in rejection Part of the Exodus series.
