05/10/15 As If: Your Life Matters

Homily from the Sixth Sunday of Easter.

Does your life matter? Do you live like it does?

Most of us think that we matter, but very few of us actually live as our life is important. We waste time on relationships that won’t last. We spend ourselves managing other people’s perception of us rather than pursue excellence. And we care more about our own fame than God’s glory. In this one life that we have been given, you have been chosen to bear a different kind of fruit…the kind that will last.

05/03/15 As If: Jesus Was Our Source

Homily from the Fifth Sunday of Easter.

Where is your confidence in a world without certainty?

We are overwhelmed by the challenges and uncertainty of life. To walk with faith is to walk with Christ. To remain in Christ is to make intentional and specific decisions to follow Him. When we cannot do this all at once, we do it through small, possible steps.
