Sermon burst...

Over the last few weeks, with parish visiting, sermon prep and everything else that has been going, I have been neglecting the blogging ... but in one fell swoop sermons will now appear.

Evening Sermons over the last couple of weeks have been looking at discipleship and the variety of things disciples should be doing. As the 12 look to Jesus for their example, they are not afraid to ask questions about what Jesus was doing when it came to prayer.

I began preaching on the Good Samaritan which broke the frame of reference from a purely Jewish mindset to a universal mission - The samaritan was the neighbour to the man, then the practical is informed by sitting at feet of Jesus but we are not simply called to sit but also called to go and do. The source of what we do as Christians must be informed by what Jesus Praised Mary for, and then of course we do need to be Martha's. Then last Sunday we were encouraged to be challenged about prayer - What are our problems with prayer and what is the Lord's prayer about?

The text for most of these sermons will now appear on the blog ...
