Change of Mind ~ Romans 12:2

March 11, 2018 Peg Weissbrod

This week’s sermon begins just before the 22 minute mark.

Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of your minds, so that you may discern what is the will of God – what is good and acceptable and perfect.

Paul writes that you and I have to change our minds, our way of thinking if we are ever going to align ourselves more fully with what God wants for us, and our world. And change is hard but as I read the other day Cinderella is proof that a new pair of shoes can change your life! Read the rest of this entry »

One Among Many ~ Romans 12:1-3

February 25, 2018 Peg Weissbrod

John’s sermon, the 2nd in our Lenten sermon series on Roman 12:1-3 begins just before the 32nd minute mark.

Props to Lois for shaping this preaching series on Romans 12:1-3! As followers of Jesus we are to be living sacrifices – transformed by the renewing of our minds – in other words, as I often say, “we are to get a new mind for a new age.” We are called to be change agents for the Kingdom of God!

Be Transformed! ~ Romans 12:1-2; Mark 1: 9-15

February 18, 2018 Peg Weissbrod

Rev. Lois Annich’s sermon begins around the 28 minute mark.

Another Lenten journey has begun. Over the years I’ve heard some people say that the word “journey” has become something of a cliché, but I confess to personally loving the word, conveying as it does a sense of movement that can be at times meandering and at other times purposeful.

Glimpses of Glory ~ Mark 9: 2-9

February 11, 2018 Peg Weissbrod

We celebrated the Transfiguration of Jesus this morning, with celebratory and thoughtful music by instrumentalists Tina Bergman and Bryan Thomas and soloist Lily B. The sermon by Rev. Annich begins just before the 35 minute mark.

Is anybody here up for a good theophany? Although some of my fellow theology nerds will know what I’m talking about, “theophany” is not a word we throw around in everyday conversations. It almost sounds like an exotic dish–“I had the theophany last night at that new restaurant and it was really delicious!” Or perhaps a musical instrument–“the orchestra played the piece well although the theophany section was a bit off.” I also think it makes a great Jeopardy question, “I’ll take theophany for $200, Alex!” Read the rest of this entry »

Chasing Demons ~ Mark 1: 29-39

February 4, 2018 Peg Weissbrod

In this celebration of Communion, and installation and ordination of our new church leaders, Rev. Lentz’s sermon begins around the 28 minute mark.

I really resonated with Simon Peter’s mother-in-law last week as I was in bed with the flu. And I am sure that many women resonated with the verse that reported that as soon as his mother-in-law was healed, she got up and served the men! #Ouch, #Getyourownmeal! Read the rest of this entry »
