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.

"Provoke One Another to Love and Good Deeds" by Peter Bankson

November 19, 2006

I have always had trouble with a lot of gladness. I find it much easier to focus on the need and look for the gladness to sustain me than the other way around. I am beginning to see, however, that there is an equally valid path to call that begins with gladness and leads to a place where that gladness crosses paths with a deep need.

Provoke One Another to Love and Good Deeds by Peter Bankson

Sometimes I am going so fast that I miss something important, like a key intersection. That happened to me on Tuesday when I was driving out to Saint Andrews Episcopal School to meet Roy Barber at work, the day before he took off for South Africa to be with April as she gives her paper to the national conference on truth and reconciliation. I have been to St. Andrews before, and the road looked familiar. I was moving along with the traffic, and the street signs were there at the corner, but I was traveling alone and running a bit behind schedule. As I drove past the intersection and looked down the familiar road I had not taken, I saw that I had made a mistake.

“In the Meantime” by Kate Cudlipp

When I set out on the Camino de Santiago — the thousand year-old pilgrimage route across the north of Spain — I did not need a compelling vision to sustain me because unlike the medieval pilgrims, I did not have to risk my life or my health to undertake the journey.
