Homilies on Easter 3

Anagnorisis  Click here Click title to view sermon Luke 24: 13–35
Summary: What is it that keeps us from immediately recognizing the risen Christ? We don’t know for sure. We can be assured, however, that he is here among us, even when we don’t recognize him. If we keep faithful, the moment will come when we do recognize him. And our lives will be changed forever.

Handling Great Sorrow  Click here Click title to view sermon Luke 24: 13–35
Summary: Losing by death a dear relative or good friend is cause for great sorrow. The two men who were disciples of Christ walking on the road to Emmaus were “looking sad.” They had lost their best friend, Jesus. The hopes and dreams seemed to be crushed. They did three things that helped: They took action, they shared their grief and they invited Jesus to stay with them.

Our Father the Judge  Click here Click title to view sermon 1 Peter 1: 17–21
Summary: God is our Father. He is also our judge. Each term tell us something different about God, but the meaning implied in each is vital to our relationship with God. God is the loving Father, but that love also judges us. Through his mercy, however, we can have boldness on the day of judgment.

Recognition: Living the Rest of the Story  Click here Click title to view sermon Luke 24: 13–35
Summary: What is it that kept those disciples on the way to Emmaus from recognizing Jesus as he stood there among them? What is it that keeps us from recognizing him? We can confront our own lack of recognition in the same way those early disciples and apostles did, as we prepare ourselves for a new day.

The Right Pair of Glasses  Click here Click title to view sermon Luke 24: 13–35
Summary: The two disciples who trudge back to Emmaus after the shocking events that culminated in Jesus’ death in Jerusalem are unable to recognize their risen Lord when he joins them on their journey. Their blindness seems to be caused not simply by the timely action of God, but by their preoccupation with other things and by their own failure to perceive what is truly the activity of God in the ordinary stuff of life.

Invisible in Plain Sight  Click here Click title to view sermon Luke 24: 13–35
Summary: Two disciples don’t recognize Jesus on the road to Emmaus. Why? One reason might simply be that they saw him out of context. Why don’t we recognize Jesus all around us, in the ordinary people we serve and who serve us? Perhaps our eyes can be opened, as were those of the two disciples — we can see Jesus more clearly in the breaking of the bread.

What Are You Worth?  Click here Click title to view sermon 1 Peter 1: 17–23
1 Peter 1: 17–21 for LFM
Summary: We may wonder about how other people in our lives and in society in general evaluate us. A more important question, though, especially because of our sinfulness, is what value we have for God. Our text tells us that we are so valued in God’s sight that the Son of God gave his life to restore us to fellowship with God. This was, in fact, God’s plan “before the foundation of the world.”

A Way to Holiness  Click here Click title to view sermon 1 Peter 1: 17–23
1 Peter 1: 17–21 for LFM
Summary: 

Peter’s first letter to the churches gives great teaching around his call to holiness. Our task is to let this teaching influence and shape how we live Christian lives among unbelievers.
