A Sunday morning sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. As we gather together this Sunday, we will light the first candle of Advent. The first candle is known as the “Prophet’s Candle” because it symbolizes the anticipation of the ages felt by men and women, prophets and kings, who longed for the arrival of the Messiah. When times felt consumed by the dark, …

A Sunday morning sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. For Elise and I, it's never too early to start celebrating Christmas! I know some refuse to deck the halls until after Thanksgiving, but in our house, we rarely make it all the way to All Saints Day before we start decorating! And after Epiphany, when we finally take down the tree, we put up a little le…

A Sunday morning sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. Some movies just have to be watched on the big screen. Big action! Surround-sound score! A small screen at home struggles to immerse us in the story. Home for the holidays in high school, I had a copy of a brand-new blockbuster. Instead of watching it on a cramped old tube TV, I borrowed a projector and…

A Sunday morning sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. For the past several days I’ve had a special song on almost constant repeat. Making coffee to start the day. Driving to visit dear folks for lunch. Walking into the library with a hum in my heart. The Sensational Nightingales—seriously, is there a better band name!—gave a beautiful four-part harmony to …

A Sunday morning sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. During heightened times of aggressive political rhetoric and social upheaval, it’s hard to be at peace. Name-calling and accusation slinging feel like daily occurrences. All the televised vitriol can leave us unsettled and dis-enchanted. In a sociopolitical environment fostering “us-vs-them” thinking, w…

A Sunday morning sermon by Peter DuMont. When we consider God’s self-revelation in Scripture, we think in terms of Fullness and Life. John the Apostle addressed this in his Gospel when—speaking of Jesus—he wrote, “From his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace” (John 1:16). There is something deeply satisfying about the experience of the …

A Sunday morning sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. Even when our kids are little, we sometimes want to share with them our favorite things. The week our oldest came home, while she nestled in my arms, I “showed” her one of my favorite movies: Citizen Kane. I could talk for hours about Citizen Kane. But for some reason, my newborn didn’t seem entirely in…

A Sunday morning sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. When our kids were little one, of our favorite movies to watch as a family was Enchanted. Like The Little Mermaid, it has memorable music and a compelling “fish out of water” story. There is a hilarious part of the film where Giselle (the cartoon protagonist who was pushed into the real world by an evil…

A Sunday morning sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. When was the last time you were completely absorbed into a movie? You sat down to watch something, and before you knew it you were fully grafted into the story. It wasn’t until the credits rolled that you felt yourself peeling away from the screen. I remember the first movie I ever watched in the theate…

A Sunday morning sermon by Peter DuMont. Literacy is foundational to learning and connection. Your reading of the words in this sentence is the fruit of labors that you, your family, and your teachers took up. We work hard to establish literacies in our primary language, in second languages, in other disciplines—learning to read a blueprint, a sour…

A Sunday morning sermon. The other morning, I came across a verse, one I’ve read countless times (I’m sure you’ve been there). It’s the kind of verse you’ve reflected on before but with this newest reading, it shines off the page. In his Gospel, the Apostle John writes, “Thomas said to Jesus, ‘Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we …

A Sunday morning sermon by Mark Turney. In a little classroom a few miles from the Nile, I stood in front of my science students and explained potential energy. By day, I was a science and sociology teacher at the fourth best school in the country. In my classroom were children from affluent families. Sons and daughters of high-ranking military off…

A Sunday sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. My first memories are from Costa Rica. I remember eating Maria cookies in preschool while my parents learned Spanish. I remember our little apartment and some of the faces of neighbors. I remember walking the plank to get into church during rainy season when the rains were so heavy a muddy moat separated the do…

A Sunday sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. The other day I was listening to a favorite song by Colin Hay, and it transported me back in time. In his song, he breathes out his aspirations during a nebulous season. Written at a time when, after several years on the international stage with Men at Work, he was himself dropped from his record label. Confuse…

A Sunday sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. “Do you know how fast you were going?” Those were the words I heard the last time I got a ticket. It’s been over ten years, but those words still stand out. I’d blown past all the signs. All the posted speed limits, all the cars wisely slowing down in advance of the speed trap. But isn’t that just life? We’re s…

A Sunday morning sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. The other morning driving up 95, my thoughts were running about as fast as my minivan (which between you and me was probably a little too fast for useful thinking or the congested traffic). Wisely, I eased up on the pedal and put on a gospel playlist. Over the soft hum of the organ, the voice of the sin…

A Sunday morning sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. For the last few weeks, we’ve walked with Elihu, following him into the deep suffering of Job. All along the way, moving closer to the man of sorrows on the ash heap, we’ve asked: How do we walk with the broken? The closer we get, the more clearly we see the sores on his hands, the boils on his face, th…

A Sunday morning sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. As a child I loved to stare at the globe, to spin it as fast as I could and trace my finger across the continents. How many of us played that game, planning future trips to far off places? The sphere would slowly stop, and where our finger pointed, we would imagine our next adventure. How many of us spe…

A Sunday morning sermon by Kathleen Hudson. Our walk with Job has been a challenging one to process and digest in application to our walk with God. In examining Elihu’s speeches, we may seek to find ourselves in the story. Do we identify with Job, the one who has been beaten up by loss and by life? Do we see ourselves in Job’s friends, those who se…

A Sunday sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. There’s nothing quite like a brand-new book. Crisp pages bound to a spine without a single hint of a crease or crack. No pages sullied with dog ears or bent edges. In my youth I despised worn out books! I didn’t loan books because I knew they’d never return in “acceptable” condition. Better to give the book awa…

A Sunday morning sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. For the last five weeks we’ve been reading the book of Esther, asking ourselves: how do we walk with the strong without being corrupted by power? It has been such a rich and important conversation. Equally important, now we prepare to ask: how do we walk with the broken? That question takes us in so man…

A Sunday morning sermon by Peter DuMont. The way of the disciple of Jesus is the way of powerless strength. Scripture is filled with stories of faith marked by overmatched people who find great victory against overwhelming odds. The Hebrews before the Red Sea with Egypt behind them, David standing before Goliath, the disciples standing before thous…

A Sunday morning sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. Exploring the book of Esther, we’ve met people who risked their lives to speak up for themselves and others. In these pages, we’ve come face to face with marginalized foreigners like Mordecai and Esther, who miraculously found themselves with cultural capital to spend for the sake of others. We should a…

A Sunday morning sermon by Pastor Brett Deal. “God moves in mysterious ways.” I’m guessing we’ve all heard that at one point. Most of the time that statement is made when we don’t understand things that are going on around us. Unfortunately, those words seem to be the extent of some people’s response to fraught times or complicated situations. Thro…
