This week, Pastor Tim talks about context, context and context, when it comes to reading and interpreting scripture. It can be very helpful, especially when we read texts like today which are about a woman marrying 7 brothers and everyone dying childless! A quote to remember from this week is, "Our faith isn't how to have life after death, but rather, how to have life before death!" Thanks for listening.

Reformation Sunday sermon. Gospel Reading: John 8:31-36.
In his sermon this week, Pastor Tim talks about Confirmation, the Reformation and Stewardship Sunday. It is based on the quote, "If the past was as great as you think it was, the present wouldn't be as messed up as you think it is." Essentially, we lie to ourselves The point being, we lie to ourselves to justify the life we want and blame others for the problems in the world. Faith should free us to own our part and to live an authentic life.

Time after Pentecost - Lectionary 27 sermon. Gospel Reading: Luke 17:5-10.
In today's sermon we learn about the Old Testament prophet Habakkuk and the context that he was speaking in. That is connected to the Gospel lesson of the apostles asking for an increase in faith. Sometimes it seems like what we are asked to do is greater than what we are capable of. In those instances we want more faith. Is more faith what we need? Do we not have enough?
