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.
"What?s Good About Bad Art? Art Criticism, Theology and Christian Devotion " by Deborah Sokolove
March 03, 2003
This sermon is about lifting up the good news, the Gospel, for everyone, however you understand yourself as a man, a woman, or as a transgender person; the good news is that God loves you and wants you to be the best kind of man, woman, or transgender person that you can be.
David Hilfiker: Wage Peace
March 09, 2003
I visited Iraq this past December because I wanted to hear the voices of the people there. As usual, the voices of the victims are missing from our policy deliberations. One might well believe that the only person living in Iraq was Saddam Hussein.

Pat Conover: From Covert Despair to Salvation
February 16, 2003
Solidarity helps a whole lot. I think of the Chaldean Christian Church in Baghdad that has finally finished a new building it is using for service to orphans and for other service purposes. They asked a church delegation to please tell President Bush not to bomb their new building and not to hurt the people they serve.
Sue Johnson: Growing Edges — Backing In
February 02, 2003
Abandoning prepared text and the lectern, Sue used an InterPlay form called Big Body Story, created in the moment using movement and voice, in the circle space in front of the altar. She told the story of backing into becoming an organist, going from “not good enough” to just doing it. “Being in the Leadership Program has brought me smack up against my ‘not good enough’ once again. The inner struggle is to discern whether that is operating, or whether I am truly not called to lead InterPlay.”
