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.

I was brought up Catholic. And though I left Catholicism in my early teens, it shaped my reality as a child. An important part of that reality was based on the belief that if I was good I would go to heaven when I died.

I prefer light over darkness. as probably most of you do also. Years ago I used to do a fair amount of caving or spelunking. I remember a time when, in the middle of winter, a friend and I went camping in West Virginia, intending to explore this one particular cave. Way after night fall, we found a place to camp. We hurriedly pitched our tent, and went searching for the entrance to the cave. It took about an hour in the dark before we stumbled onto it.

1st Sunday after Epiphany foolish hope thumbnail 

 

Acts 10: 37-38, It is also written that he was filled with the spirit of God, and power, and so He went through the province of Judea beginning from Nazareth  

his birth place, doing good and healing all those that were under the power of the devil, because God was with him. 


We too must response and witness to God’s people by doing good, praying for the sick, for the nation as well.
