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.

"Evolution, the Doctrine of the Trinity, and Salvation" by Pat Conover

About a year ago I helped Seekers participate in the Evolution Sunday movement which is continuing to grow and spread across the United States. The title of my sermon a year ago was “When Good Theology and Good Science Meet.” For those few of you who do not immediately recall that sermon I’ll share a few lines from the concluding paragraph. “ …the power that science is unleashing makes it…important that we share the work of creating and sustaining a society, a world, that can make such power a blessing and not a curse. That requires a lot of ethical work, a lot of political work, a lot of social and cultural imagination.

One day I took a walk with my two friends, because that day for us was boring and we had nothing to do, but to walk. While we were walking, we saw many people far away from us. We thought they are discussing something or maybe they are solving their problems and we thought we know them because they were in our place. When we approach them they were on a bike and two of them jumped from the bike pointing at us with guns! We were scared, but one of my friends ran away. I wanted to follow him, but I realized that I’m too late and I was scared they will shoot me. One of the criminals went to my other friend, and one came to me.

Some people refer to us as wise men, but we are not any wiser than others the same age, older or younger.  Some Greeks call us “magi” as if we were sorcerers.  But we are merely priests of Zarathustra, the Golden Light, studying the hymns he wrote that are in the Avesta and reveal to us the Light.  And performing the prescribed rituals to honor Ahura Mazda, the one God who created all things and will judge us all at the end of time.  And studying the stars, of course, to understand the course of human events.
