Sermons

Seekers recognizes that any member of the community may be called upon by God to give us the Word, and thus we have an open pulpit with a different preacher each week. Sermons preached at Seekers, as well as sermons preached by Seekers at other churches or events, are posted here, beginning with the most recent.

Feel free to use what is helpful from these sermons. We only ask that when substantial portions are abstracted or used in a written work, please credit Seekers Church and the author, and cite the URL.

It’s where most of us arrive at the manger.

The Fourth Sunday of Advent

 

Keith and Brenda assembled a composite Christmas pageant using slides from last year and from 1993. The little children in the earlier version are grownups now, and it was fun to see what changes and what remains the same in acting out the story of Jesus’ birth in Bethlehem.
