Season of Play
Season of Play Sermon 1 — July 19 Genesis 1:1–2:3; Zephaniah 3:17; Psalm 126 When was the last time you played? I don't mean the last time you did something productive in disguise — checked a box, burned a few calories, networked over golf. I mean, the last time you did something purely, uselessly, for the joy of it. Maybe it was a game of Uno with a grandchild, sprawled on the floor, no stakes at all except who gets bragging rights. Maybe it was picking up a paintbrush with

Understanding Trinity Sunday and Its Meaning This Weekend
Trinity Sunday is a special day in the Christian calendar. It falls on the Sunday after Pentecost, which means this Sunday many churches will celebrate this week. This day honors the Christian belief in the Holy Trinity: God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ), and God the Holy Spirit.

All Saints Day: The Saints Among Us
Based on 2 Thessalonians 1:1-4, 11-12 Opening Today we celebrate All Saints Day, and I want to start with a confession: I used to think saints were people in stained glass windows. You know the type—glowing halos, perfect posture, hands folded in perpetual prayer. They seemed so far removed from ordinary life that they might as well have been from another planet.
