Sermon clips from Doylestown churches

34s
“The rest, I'll figure out. And so to me, that's what all our faith should be. Know nothing but God. Start with Jesus and him crucified, as Paul says. Right? Know nothing but Jesus and him crucified, and then let god show the rest. Yes. And when we do that, not as individuals but as collective groups of Christians, we're gonna discover that truly creation is wonderful, it is good, and that we have a place in it not opposed to it. Amazing. Yeah.”
58s
“They depend on our curiosity about each other and about our neighbors. The people who knew Tabitha knew her by her actions, her loving kindness with others. Shouldn't we be known in the same way? Shouldn't our faith communities be known for our acts of loving kindness? You know, resurrection stories are not monoliths either. Each character in each resurrection story, be it Tabitha or Jairus' daughter or Guru Nanak, each person experiences resurrection in a different way. And we, you and me, as hearers of this story are invited to imagine what can be resurrected in us. what will rise up in each of us? What needs to be resurrected in our faith communities?”
62s
“I'll paraphrase what God is saying here. He's saying, I've been speaking to you all along. That voice you've heard, that was me. There are no other gods but me. For centuries, I've summoned Israel to seek me. Though you have run from me, I have pursued you, and I will keep pursuing you and will not stop until I have destroyed what keeps us apart and have healed your wounds. It's a declaration of the eternal will of God to reconcile. Though we hide ourselves from him and stopped our ears from hearing his voice, He has spoken, and he has not hidden himself from those who want to find him.”
56s
“And if we're not engaged in discipleship, if we're not engaged in those intimate relationships with one another in the body, where we're living life together, where we're sharing what's going on in our hearts and minds together, where we're asking other people to hold up scripture as a mirror. That's not gonna happen. That's why all of Christ's followers need to walk in repentance. That begs the question, what is repentance? Boil down to its simplest definition, repentance is two things simultaneously. Repentance is turning away from sin and turning toward God. You you can't effectively turn away from sin. You can't put sin to death in your life without first turning toward God.”
69s
“What what's in there? What what is going on with my faith? What what do I believe about God? What do I know when I'm just sitting here on the face of this planet with no spiritual leadership responsibility? And what came to me at the time, and it felt like a little gift from God. Just like in the gospel, said God gave this insight to Peter. For me, alone in the dark night on a June summer night, what came to me was that, well, one thing I'm confident about that I feel like I know is that I'm a creature. I get to just be a creature, and God's the creator. I don't have to worry about all that God has to worry about. I just get to be a creature. And that this creator wants their creatures to know them, that there's a desire for a relationship.”
68s
“Guys, we see in verses 15 to 16, Peter is justified in God's eyes. So why does he need to be justified in anyone else's eyes? Right? To those Judaizers, he doesn't need to be. If Paul only said, yours your your separation is a violation of the rule of the rules, what would happen with his fear? What would happen with it? Well, he would probably be able to tuck it in deep inside. Right? But all of what happened was it would be dormant. Right? And it would just come out again some other time or in some other different way. It's not actually eliminating it. It's not killing it. Right? It's not killing it. But in reminding Peter that he is justified already, Paul is saying you don't need approval from those Judaizers, those people. You already have it in Christ. Don't be afraid. Don't be afraid.”
60s
“And so once again, Peter is an icon standing in there for the rest of us. Christ asks the question point blank, and he tells the truth. He says who Jesus is. And then Jesus tells Peter who he is, and that is exactly how the spirit of God is at work within each of us. When we tell the truth about God, about who God is, about how our lives are forever changed in the light of God's grace. When when we tell the truth about God, that God will tell the truth about us. God will tell us who we are. God will confess God's love poured out totally and unequivocally for us and will show us the shape of the life to which we are being called.”
56s
“The person who touched Jesus, yes, they had faith that even a touch of Jesus' garment would impact them. And it appears to have also impacted Jesus. Like this biblical situation, our interactions are constantly giving and receiving energy from and to others. I think one of the lessons is we need times of prayerful meditation to fill up, to get right, so that the type of energy we bring to others in service is actually life giving energy as opposed to being reactive or divisive with the energy we have.”
79s
#HeChangesUs
“But here's the thing. In this relationship where we are united with Christ and we walk with him, we take him as he is. Well, he's holy, glorious, beautiful, perfect in every way. We are sinners. We are weak, and we are bent toward wickedness. How can a relationship and a walk with Christ be Jesus and us bent toward wickedness? How can something like that go on? How can we coexist with Jesus if we're constantly being bent to our wickedness? We can't coexist like that. One of us has to change. And I'll tell you, it's not Jesus. In the old testament, God says, I the Lord do not change. The new testament says about Jesus, Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today, forever. He doesn't change. We change. But the way we change is that he changes us. And that's how we stay in unity with him. God's purpose for us is to be conformed into the image of Christ.”
28s
“God had to have been involved. It doesn't really matter if the way of getting there is what you were taught as a child or not. What matters is that you understand that because God created reality, we don't have to protect God from reality. I I think a lot of this is circling this idea of, what I one of my major themes, if you hear me preach a lot, this will come out a lot. I'm very against small godism.”
