Christ the King

The Dalai Lama noted that all major religions share the same goals. He's right about that, of course, but that is not the same as saying that all major religions are the same. They are not.

So what makes this particular Abrahamic religion, Christianity, unique? Christ the King Sunday is the last day of the church year. Next Sunday we begin again our long journey from Bethlehem to Jerusalem, from manger to the Resurrection. What makes our journey unique?

Hidebound

The Presidential election of 2012 was hideous. We found how much damage can be done by those in the media and politics whose only brief is to stir up hatred and contempt. We have sinned. I pray that we repent before more damage is done.

An Informed Faith

If you haven't gotten enough irony from last week's sermon where a non-creedal Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) preacher undertook to explain what a creed is, by all means tune in this week and hear a non-creedal Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) preacher actually DEFEND the use of creeds to remind us of the story to which we have given our hearts.

Creeds

The Rev. Dr. Richard Smith made an off-hand comment last Sunday when some mention of the Apostle's Creed was made that he wanted to hear me, a minister of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) struggle through a sermon on the topic of creeds. The Presbyterian Church is Creedal. The DOC does not embrace creeds as a requirement of fellowship.

Well, Richard, here's your chance. Join us for this week's sermon, "Creeds" by clicking HERE for audio and HERE for text.
