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.

Summer 2009 coverSara found community through communion; she translated sharing food as a real life manifestation of communion. Like Sara, I find communion a deeply moving spiritually intimate act. It is one of the most personal things you can do in church, sans foot washing on Maundy Thursday.

Summer 2009 coverTuesday 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.

Summer 2009 coverAs 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.
