Who’s Afraid of the Holy Spirit?
[Machine transcription] Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen. Well, I haven’t yet gotten in the habit of giving titles to my sermons. When I read this text, I thought I’d be real smart and come up with something creative. And so I came up with, Who’s Afraid of the Holy Spirit? But if you just do…
Sermon for Fourth Sunday of Easter
[Machine transcription] Christ is risen. Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and from our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen. This Sunday, you might often hear it referred to as Good Shepherd Sunday, and I think it’s interesting that in our gospel text, we really don’t even get to the verses that talk about the Good Shepherd himself. But to follow the…
Sermon for Sixth Sunday after Epiphany
[Machine transcription] Dear Baptized in Christ, especially today, Daniel Augustine, grace, mercy, and peace to you from God the Father and from our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.

Sermon for Advent Midweek 3
[Machine transcription] Jesus says, those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick, go and learn what this means.

As Pastor mentioned in his opening, we continue with our…
Sermon for Third Sunday of Advent

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. So imagine that you’re a Galilean, and…
Sermon for Advent Midweek 1 — St Andrew
[Machine transcription] One of the two who heard John speak and followed Jesus was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother. He first found his own brother Simon and said to him, “We have found the Messiah.” Be seated please. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, amen. As Pastor had mentioned in his welcoming, today is the feast of St.…
Sermon for Eighteenth Sunday after Pentecost
[Machine transcription] For where you go, I will go, and where you lodge, I will lodge. Your people shall be my people, and your God my God. Please be seated. In the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, amen. So this morning I want to attempt what is probably a vicar mistake. I want to touch on each of the three readings appointed for this 18th Sunday…
Sermon for Second Sunday of Easter
[Machine transcription] How blessed are they who have not seen, and yet whose faith has constantly been, for they eternal life shall win. Amen. Christ is risen. Alleluia. Grace, mercy, and peace to you from God the Father and from our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen. Don’t be such a doubting Thomas. Odds are you’ve heard this said, maybe to you before. I…
Sermon for Third Sunday in Lent
[Machine transcription] And he said to the vine dresser, “Look, for three years now, I have come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and I find none. Cut it down. Why should it use up the ground?” And he answered him, “Sir, let it alone this year also, until I dig around it and put on manure. Then if it should bear fruit next year, well and good. But if not,…
