Blessing Us Still

Wade in the Water

Guest preacher Rev. Randy Weber preaches on the story of Jesus healing a man by the pool of Bethsaida in John 5:1-3, 5-9. Jesus is still inviting us into healing waters today--offering healing of both body and spirit. What does that look like in our lives today?

The Cure for Cynicism

As we begin a summer season of welcoming several different voices to Old Pine's pulpit, Rev. Rebecca Blake preaches on the calling of Peter and the other disciples in Luke 5:1-11. In what ways do we resonate with Peter's experience? What might we be afraid to hope for, that God might be just about to provide?

Whose Are You?

Rev. Ferris preaches on Jesus' temptation by the devil. Matthew 4:1-11.

Descent Into Belovedness

Rev. Ferris preaches on Jesus' baptism and how it forms our bedrock identity as Christians. Matthew 3: 13-17.

The Language of Love

In this Pentecost sermon on Acts 2:1-13, Rev. Blake explores how God reveals God's self to humanity through different kinds of languages--visual, musical, and theological, among others. The implications of God using fire and wind to signify the coming of the Holy Spirit, specifically to the followers of Jesus in Jerusalem, are profound. What images or theological language might we need to hear from God today?
