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 Church of the Real Way” by Peter Bankson
August 2, 2009
Tuesday evening our pilgrims returned from 10 days in Guatemala that included a week of work with the people of las Lomas, Tecpan, in Chimaltenango. We were working together on the foundation of their new school. It was work that’s familiar to many of you who have been on earlier pilgrimages. This year’s pilgrimage was a time for me to think about who God seems to be calling us to be.

As one who spends a lot of time recently looking for things that I have lost, I am here to tell you the Seeking is not as much fun as it used to be. The glasses, the keys, the confidence that I put on the bookcase or left on the table, or used to lead a Sunday School class: these things elude me now more than ever before.
A Sermon by Steven Miller
July 12, 2009
The Word was brought this morning by Bishop Steven Miller of Seed Faith International, one of the congregations that worships regularly in our building. Bishop Miller said that in order to get the blessings of God, one must walk in the way of God.
“Honoring Our Prophets” by Marjory Zoet Bankson
July 5, 2009
Webster’s dictionary defines a prophet as "one who speaks for God as though with divine guidance." Many people recognized Jesus as a prophet, but our Gospel reading for this morning describes the rejection of Jesus by his own family and close neighbors: "Prophets are not without honor, except in their hometown, and among their own kin, and in their own house," Jesus tells his disciples. Is that because they knew him too well?
