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.

Afterwards, the congregation was invited to discuss what surprised them in hearing the Word brought in this way.

“The Bible in One Hand, the Newspaper in the Other” by Kate Cudlipp
January 4, 2009
The sermon today is part of my ongoing reflection on what difference it makes to me-and to the world-that I am the inheritor of over 5000 years of a religious tradition that includes the faith and faithlessness of the people of Israel, the prophets that arose to call Israel back to its true vocation, and the birth, life and death of Jesus, who though he died, lives on in this very troubled world.
