For Goodness Sake: The Fruit of the Spirit, Integrity, and the Search for Wholeness

What does it mean to be a truly good person in a world shaped by outrage, projection, performance, and power? In this thoughtful and timely sermon, the Rev. Dr. Luke Lindon explores the biblical idea of “goodness” as more than morality or appearances. Drawing from Galatians, Romans, Exodus, and the Gospel of John, Luke reflects on servant leadership, grace, political division, projection, and the quiet strength of integrated people whose character remains steady wherever they go. This sermon invites listeners to consider how compassion, integrity, and spiritual wholeness still matter in modern life — and why authentic goodness may be one of the most radical acts left in our culture today. *To support our mission to create more podcast content like this ⁠Donate using our secure portal: ⁠https://onrealm.org/uccmedina/-/form/give/now⁠ [https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__onrealm.org_uccmedina_-2D_form_give_now&d=DwMFaQ&c=euGZstcaTDllvimEN8b7jXrwqOf-v5A_CdpgnVfiiMM&r=VN9xOCKl6xjt2MRZdWJdT-y7aTER-AC4g_S2GZimnyU&m=R90FxirpxwKjR55QpfB-lefbNgHbO820ADQX7-_d-yoWd6QXfSb91KdmjTE9lX9N&s=PhSiDYAUev1gkfulwfg0Q-iv8Y--U3gp3pvHmLhLnfc&e=] OR Texting UCCMEDINA to 73256 Who is the Rev.

Killing It With Kindness: The Difference Between Being Nice and Being Kind

What if kindness isn’t soft at all? In this sermon, the Dr. Luke Lindon explores the surprising strength hidden inside real kindness through stories about Mr. Rogers, Pope Francis, a motorcycle club, and a fearless pastor who understood that truth and compassion belong together. This message challenges the idea that kindness is weakness and reminds us that, in a world obsessed with being nice, genuine kindness may be one of the most radical acts left. *To support our mission to create more podcast content like this ⁠Donate using our secure portal: https://onrealm.org/uccmedina/-/form/give/now [https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__onrealm.org_uccmedina_-2D_form_give_now&d=DwMFaQ&c=euGZstcaTDllvimEN8b7jXrwqOf-v5A_CdpgnVfiiMM&r=VN9xOCKl6xjt2MRZdWJdT-y7aTER-AC4g_S2GZimnyU&m=R90FxirpxwKjR55QpfB-lefbNgHbO820ADQX7-_d-yoWd6QXfSb91KdmjTE9lX9N&s=PhSiDYAUev1gkfulwfg0Q-iv8Y--U3gp3pvHmLhLnfc&e=] OR Texting UCCMEDINA to 73256 Who is the Rev.

The Peace That Surpasses: Why Peace Feels So Hard and How to Build It

What is peace and how do you actually live it when life feels overwhelming? In this powerful sermon by Rev. Dr. Luke Lindon at United Church of Christ Congregational in Medina, Ohio, the conversation moves beyond surface level calm and into something deeper, a kind of peace that holds steady even in pressure, conflict, and uncertainty. Drawing from Bible teachings including the Gospel of John and the letters of Peter, alongside insights from Brené Brown, Deepak Chopra, and Martin Luther King Jr., this episode reframes peace not as perfection or escape, but as a practiced, resilient way of moving through the world. If you have ever felt overwhelmed, restless, or stuck in cycles of stress and overthinking, this message offers a grounded, practical path forward. Through three simple but transformative practices, interrupting the spiral, releasing what is not yours, and learning to be present, you will discover how peace can become something you build, not something you wait for. This is a sermon about faith, emotional resilience, spiritual growth, and what it means to live with intention in a chaotic world. Listen in and begin cultivating a peace that lasts.
