Time after Pentecost • Lectionary 17—July 28, 2019
Preacher: Pastor Jeff Lilley
Summary: I need your help today. Please tell me how to pray. You are right to start by thanking God and to pray for the things we need. It’s like Jesus in our Gospel who tells the disciples to thank God for being God, to ask for our daily bread, to ask that we not be tested, and to ask for the things we need.

Time after Pentecost • Lectionary 16—July 21, 2019
Preacher: Pastor Jeff Lilley
Summary: Today’s Gospel is about Jesus visiting Mary and Martha. Mary is listening to Jesus while Martha is working, so Martha comes to Jesus and asks him to make Mary help her. Which is more important, the Bible with Jesus’ words or the broom we use to clean up here at church? Jesus both wants us to listen to him and sends us out to do the work of the Gospel, so both the Bible and the broom are necessary for us to answer the call to love God and love our neighbor.

Time after Pentecost • Lectionary 15—July 14, 2019
Preacher: Intern Pastor Andy Flatt-Kuntze
Summary: Today is my last Sunday, and we’re going on a field trip. Our first lesson says that God is going to give us a commandment, so we’re going to look around the church to find it. We looked all over, but didn’t find it, so we’d better look at the lesson again. It says that the commandment is not far away; it’s in our mouths and in our hearts. The commandment God puts in our hearts is to love God and love one another.

Time after Pentecost • Lectionary 14—July 7, 2019
Preacher: Pastor Jeff Lilley
Summary: In today’s Gospel, Jesus has 70 followers put on their shoes and go out to the people. They are called apostles, which means “sent out.” Jesus sends each of you out as well. We sometimes think the most important thing is to come to church, but it’s much more important for us to go out and share the message of God’s love. God blesses your shoes so you can go out as apostles.

Time after Pentecost • Lectionary 13—June 30, 2019
Preacher: Pastor Jeff Lilley
Summary: In today’s Gospel, Jesus cannot get the people excited about following him, and the disciples want to have fire rain down on them, but Jesus stops them. He says that the Holy Spirit will do its work at the right time. It’s important for us to remember that the spirit is there for all people at the right time.

Time after Pentecost • Lectionary 12—June 23, 2019
Preacher: Intern Pastor Andy Flatt-Kuntze
Summary: This is the first Sunday of common time, and we are surrounded by our green paraments. In our first reading we hear about God extending a hand to God’s people, even though they have been rebellious. Later in worship, we extend our hands in peace and welcome each other to worship.

The Holy Trinity—June 16, 2019
Preacher: Pastor Jeff Lilley
Summary: Today is both Trinity Sunday and Father’s Day. You know that the Trinity is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, but my question today is which one is the most important. They are all equally important. These are three names we use to talk about God, and there are many more. In the same way, you are all children of God, and each of you is important to God.
