Preaching (201)
  1. Just as God on “Eagles’ wings” miraculously provided manna and water and life by His Word to Israel in the desert, so Jesus gather’s His Church as a hen would to give of Himself like the pelican to us in our journey through life in this Pentecost season of the Church Year.
  2. Hosea also portrays God in a very intimate and husbandly way, reaching out to the one He loves when love is abused and lost.
  3. God, through the mystery of Trinity, is at work in the act of creation. Every person of the Trinity participated in creation.
  4. People live and move in story, and the effect of story is that it creates distance for them rhetorically which makes the hearer feel safe to explore and cared for by the preacher.
  5. What Moses suffered in a limited way Christ actually endured fully on our behalf!
  6. “Rolling the dice” or rather “casting lots” has an interesting place in the life of the Church from the Bible.
  7. Paul's message is simple. God has come to judge and save all people through Jesus’ resurrection.
  8. This brief glimpse into Stephen’s life shows that the Word of the Lord must continue to go out despite its worldly detractors.
  9. When God returns to His Temple, all of His people will be gathered around and the Temple itself will go by a new name: “Yahweh is there.”
  10. What were the “many other words” and how did he “continue to exhort them"? I want to know the details but, perhaps, that is not the point.
  11. God would raise Jesus from the dead. That’s the message that sounded crazy. That’s what made the council believe that the church was filled with madmen.
