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.
A Musical Word from Jesse Palidofsky
June 20, 2010
This week, Jesse Palidofsky shared some of the songs that have grown out of his sabbatical last summer, and spoke his desire to spend more time on his music.
“Earth’s Immune System” by David Hilfiker
June 13, 2010
Anyone who’s optimistic these days about the future of our environment doesn’t have the right data. The dysfunction of the political system and the rapacious reach of the international corporations lead many to despair. The intensity of American consumerism can lead only to cynicism. There is little reason for optimism. But optimism is different from hope, and hope is the cornerstone of our faith.
“Reflections on Marriage” by Marjory Bankson
June 11, 2010
You surely know that in our self-centered culture, marriage is a kind of madness! An irrational act! An astonishing commitment! And after 28 years together, your decision to marry now is both a joyous occasion for your spiritual community to gather in celebration and support, and acknowledgment of the recent change in DC laws which had effectively prevented your marriage from taking place before.
Today, we are here to celebrate both!
“Living Gratefully” by Will Ramsey and others
June 6, 2010
My message today is about “Living Gratefully.” Just two weeks ago I was on retreat with men from the Seekers Church. As I look around many of them are sitting here this morning. Over the course of the weekend we experienced deep gratitude as we shared stories about our lives. So much was my exuberance that I asked Celebration Circle for the time to share our experiences with the entire family of Seekers.
“Living Differently: Called to Active Duty” by Peter Bankson
Trinity
May 30, 2010
Today is Trinity Sunday, a day when the church invites us to consider the presence of the Holy One in three different dimensions: as Creating God, Redeeming Christ, and Sustaining Holy Spirit. Not three different beings, but three different glimpses of one mystery. I think there are other places where we’re offered different glimpses of the same core truth. This is a season of “Living Differently.” Are we ready?
