Meeting Sundays, 10:30am, at Athens Drive High School
With divine timing (or perhaps divine humor), this sermon on “Thy Kingdom Come” lands during inauguration week, inviting us to examine what this prayer truly demands of us. Through stories of ancient Rome and Civil Rights history, we discover how Jesus’ vision of God’s Kingdom remains a radical challenge to every earthly power structure – calling us not just to pray differently, but to live differently.

Through stories of college sports and modern culture, we explore the phrase “Hallowed be Thy name.” How might the radical-individualism of our age be challenged by these words from the Lord’s Prayer?

In this reflection on the story of the Magi, we explore the beautiful complexity of human hearts – how we, like the Wise Men, both give and withhold, longing for God’s Kingdom while clinging to our own. How might this ancient story speak to our modern struggle between surrender and self-preservation?

On this fourth Sunday of advent, our theme is love. Love is one of the most important words in the life of faith, but (in English at least) its meaning can be elusive. When we say God is Love, what is it we actually mean?

Through an unlikely pair of stories – a Christmas airline surprise and an ancient couple’s unexpected news – we explore what it means to participate in God’s joy. Together they reveal how God delights in bringing life to barren places, and invites us to do the same.

During World War II, Japanese Americans in internment camps launched a quiet rebellion – not with weapons, but with vegetable gardens, poetry, and baseball leagues. Through their story of creating beauty behind barbed wire, this Advent sermon explores what it means to practice hope as an act of holy defiance, both then and now.

As we prepare for Advent, the lectionary wants us to be thinking about the nature of kingship. The Jewish people had a long, checkered history with kings. In Jesus, they would find a King whose Kingdom was not from this world.
