THE PARABLES OF JESUS
Sunday Mar 30, 2014
Sunday Mar 30, 2014
Here I look at how Jesus taught with parables by looking specifically at the parable of the talents in Matthew 25. When you understand the value of a talent, you begin to look at this parable differently. When that happens, you also begin to look at God and look at yourself differently.

THE TEACHING OF JESUS

Sunday Mar 16, 2014
Sermon on the teachings of Jesus. I explore what it means that Jesus was a Rabbi. At the same time, it is important to understand that Jesus did not follow all the expectations of Rabbis in his day. I look at parts of Matthew 7 to explore how Jesus' teachings explain life and ultimately say something about who Jesus is.
In a side note: There are two times when I use visuals in the sermon. At one point I put a log in my eye. At another point I throw beads representing pearls at a stuffed kangaroo (we could not find a pig!). These are not clear on the recording because they were meant to help the people in the pews.

This is a look at the miracle of Jesus turning water into wine. This is a miracle with a lot of layers and a lot of imagery.

THE CHILDHOOD OF JESUS

This sermon is on the childhood. The only story we have from Jesus' childhood is his visit to the temple at the age of 12. It does not have a lot of interest in what Jesus was like, but then what is this story about?
