This sermon was preached on the fourth Sunday of Easter, April 17, 2016. The audio was recorded at the Praise and Worship service of Bethany Lutheran Church.
John 10:22-30 (NRSV)

At that time the festival of the Dedication took place in Jerusalem.
It was winter,  23 and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the portico of Solomon.  
24 So the Jews gathered around him and said to him,
“How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Messiah, tell us plainly.”  
25 Jesus answered, “I have told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father’s name testify to me;  
26 but you do not believe, because you do not belong to my sheep.  
27 My sheep hear my voice. I know them, and they follow me.  
28 I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one will snatch them out of my hand.  
29 What my Father has given me is greater than all else, and no one can snatch it out of the Father’s hand.  
30 The Father and I are one.”

“Know from whence you came. If you know whence you came, there are absolutely no limitations to where you can go.”
― James Baldwin

    Welcome! This blog contains recordings and manuscripts of sermons that I have preached. I understand preaching to be an event, not just words on paper. The recording captures the event of preaching, God's living Word present in Gods living community. The manuscript represents the preparation leading up to the event of preaching.
