3/5/2017 | Jesus Tempted Seeing the Judean desert, the wilderness in which Jesus was tempted with my own eyes is very powerful and a blessing, but the better blessing is having these words from the Gospel of Matthew that tell me 100% what happened: what Jesus did for me and you to guarantee your salvation and mine. |

Some call "them" convicts, ex-cons, offenders, ex-offenders, criminals, inmates, probationers ... while some others call them stupid, bad, hopeless, unlovable, unloved, disgusting, and gross!! At the Community of St. Dysmas, they call them "members." Today, on Christ the King Sunday, we welcome Gerry Rickel, Pastor of St. Dysmas congregation, another community of forgiven sinners, who happen to live in a prison building. Today's sermon is in an unusual format of an interview between Pastor Gerry Rickel and Rev. Dr. Michael McQuaid. |

11/13/2016 | Veterans Sunday Our veterans are men and women of great courage and humility who have been willing to walk in harm’s way in order to defend and protect the rights and liberties of others. They are not interested in personal or national gain but in the preservation of peace and order. What they do they do in order to protect their neighbors, which is a true expression of Christian love and consequently a Christian calling. They deserve to be honored and recognized for their service to their country and their fellow man. |

10/23/2016 | Not Like Other People Sometimes walls sound like such a good idea, such as putting up a barrier to keep the dog out of the new grass you are growing. Other times, we discover those very walls close us in and cut us off from community. What is the good news Jesus teaches us in this story about how to get out of our walls? |
Rev. Dr. Mike McQuaid | |

9/18/2016 | You Can’t Take It with You Sometimes, Jesus’ teachings are easy to understand: for example, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength. And love your neighbor as yourself.” But, then there are texts like today’s that can leave us scratching our heads. But, there is a point and the point is there: You can’t love both – so, which will you love? |
Rev. Dr. Mike McQuaid | |

9/11/2016 | Rejoicing with First Responders A shepherd and a sheep, a woman and a coin -- sounds like the beginning of an interesting joke, but it’s not. It’s Jesus’ way of getting at what charges God’s heart and how Jesus calls us to let that guide our actions. Today, on this 15th anniversary of the 9-11 attacks on US soil, we honor First Responders who embody today’s lesson. |
Rev. Dr. Mike McQuaid | |

9/4/2016 | "Making God Bigger --- the Center of It All!" Jesus challenges his disciples to let go of those relationships or material possessions that try to shape or become the focus of our lives. Jesus is meant to be our center! Are we willing to let go and let God be in control? |

8/28/2016 | Dis-Grace or God’s Grace? With whom do you eat? Jesus teaches about humility and hospitality. Others in our culture today seem to be lifting up the opposites. How do you behave at God’s banquet and whom do you invite to it? |

8/21/2016 | Healing Power For the time it takes a person to be born and eventually graduate from high school, this lady that Jesus pulls out of the crowd was bent over. In a matter of moments, Jesus heals her. What do we do with the moments we have when we encounter other people? |

7/10/2016 | Whose is my Neighbor? Today we hear from eight of our youth how they witnessed, experienced and share the gospel mercy during their YouthWorks Mission Trip in Raleigh, NC, June 19-24, 2016. We invest time into teaching our youth this message of love because they live in a day-to-day world, as we saw in the national news this week, where there are many people who resort to violence to deal with thoughts and emotions. In Contrast, Jesus calls us to do otherwise. So, we look to Jesus to teach us how to be good neighbors. |

7/3/2016 | Asking for Laborers What does spelunking have to do with Jesus? What does Jesus mean when he says the harvest is plentiful? Will you help to ask the Lord to send out laborers? Will you be one of them? |

6/26/2016 | Called to Follow In the midst of a scary world we have answers, don't we? They come from Jesus and him teaching his followers what it means to live as free, baptized, faithful people. How do we teach and show our children who are newly baptized to be followers of Jesus? As parents, the church community and Godparents, we are Called to Follow and become examples for our children and for others. |

6/19/2016 | hat if Jesus Came to Visit? You never know when or where Jesus is going to turn up. He just might come to visit me or you with an offer of healing and new life with the power to make it happen. May we be open to what Jesus might do in us. |
Rev. Meheret Caruthers | |

6/12/2016 | Wasted or Not? I can hear the complaints now as people retold today’s event to others: “She did what?!!” “He said what???” Two sinners. Two attitudes. How do forgiveness and love interact? |

5/22/2016 | A Relational God In the midst of the anxieties of life, Trinity Sunday is all about celebrating how God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit live in relationship with each other and model such relating for us. As we place greater and greater trust in the Triune God that Jesus revealed to us as he talked about sending an advocate in his place when he is gone, then we can find our anxiety decrease. |
Rev. Dr. Mike McQuaid | |

5/15/2016 | I went to a strip club? What does this mean? On this day of Pentecost, we hear about a rush of wind, God's deeds of power being told in our own language; and disciples appearing drunk. What does this mean? |
Rev. Dr. Mike McQuaid | |
![]() |
5/8/2016 | Jesus Offers a Prayer The prayer is not for himself, it’s for his disciples and it’s not just for the disciples who will witness his death, but it’s for disciples to come. Have you ever had anyone pray for you? |
Rev. Meheret Caruthers | |

5/1/2016 | Trouble All Around There's trouble all around us: natural disasters, a contentious election season, relationship problems in our personal lives, health concerns and financial challenges. It's hard to see how Jesus can exhort us, "Let not your hearts be troubled," when trouble surrounds us on a daily basis. And truth be told, throughout these chapters in John's Gospel, Jesus himself is troubled plenty of times, from weeping at Lazarus' grave to praying that this cup may pass him in the Garden the night before his death. Yet, in the midst of chaos and confusion, Jesus tells us: DO NOT BE AFRAID. It's a message we find again and again in the Bible (at least 173 times by my count) because as people of faith, we know that God is with us every day, and especially when we are challenged and battered by the ups and downs of life. So take Jesus' exhortation to heart: Let not your hearts be troubled, and do not be afraid. |
Bishop Wolfgang D. Herz-Lane | |

4/24/2016 | … Again, Love One Another… Again, Love One Another… Again, Love One Another… "Love one another" says Jesus, again. Do we really need to focus on this message, again? Have we not mastered this command of Jesus already? This call of Jesus is as relevant today as it was in Cornelius and Peter's day 2000 years ago!! |
Rev. Dr. Mike McQuaid | |

4/17/2016 | Lost Sheep and a Shepherd A young Marine loses faith in the midst of war and yet reaches out to fellow soldiers. A religious leader feels like he loses the parameters of his faith and yet goes on a journey with another man who is seeking answers to his faith questions. The modern church loses its footing in a fast-changing world and yet hears an invitation from society to enter into conversation. Will it go? Sometimes, as lost sheep, we just have to step forward and trust that we are following our master’s voice and do the work for which we feel called. |

4/10/2016 | Drenched! Jumping into a lake fully-clothed (except in the case of an emergency!) might sound like a silly thing to do, but Peter the disciple does just that. Confused, excited and overwhelmed, Peter recognizes his friend Jesus calling to him, and into the drink he goes. We can shake our head, bemused at Peter’s seeming lack of awareness, but how do we respond to the call of Jesus? Aren’t we, too, confused, excited and overwhelmed? Don’t we too make choices that might seem silly if we stop to think about them? |

3/27/2016 | Easter -- the stone at Easter The stone – it does not usually get a lot of attention in the Easter story; in fact, it is just rolled out of the way. So, what good news can we hear in connection with this stone? What does it have to do with “looking for the living among the dead?” How do you respond to the Easter morning message – like the women at the tomb or Peter and the apostles? Happy Easter!! |
Rev. Dr. Mike McQuaid | |

3/20/2016 | A Pointed Week The way we point our fingers often indicates what we are trying to communicate. So, what is the POINT of Palm-Passion Sunday? |
Rev. Dr. Mike McQuaid | |

3/13/2016 | An Extravagant Love The love Jesus showed, and still shows, goes way down deep into the souls of people and brings out a response like Mary's. What Jesus does for people is costly, extravagant, life changing. It goes all the way into death. |
Rev. Meheret Caruthers | |
![]() |
3/6/2016 | What Makes You Hungry? A couple weekends ago, some of our middle and high school youth went without food for 30 hours. Not only did they raise a bunch of money, with the help of some incentives to be revealed next week, but they gained a new perspective on hunger. What do we know about hunger, and what does it have to do with a rebellious son? |

2/21/2016 | A Prophet Being a prophet might sound like a daunting role, one that is filled by someone else, certainly not people like you and me; but what if being a prophet was simpler than you thought? What if being a prophet was not something God left up to those with the loudest voices, but rather, what if God was calling each one of us to be prophetic in our own, unique way? |
Rev. Meheret Caruthers | |

2/14/2016 | A Stone & Bread Today’s story about Jesus deals with bread and a stone. How can it inspire us to be a blessing to others? |

2/7/2016 | Jesus -- the Face of the Good News Some cultural icons have faces that speak for themselves. Einstein? Intelligence. Genius. Science. Bad hair days. Leonardo da Vinci? Art. The Renaissance. Inventions. You get the idea. So what do we think about when we see a rendition of Moses' face. Or Elijah's. Or the face of Jesus? |
Rev. Dr. Mike McQuaid | |
![]() |
1/31/2016 | Consecration Sunday Consecration Sunday is the day that we reflect on designating something to be sacred that is set apart for God’s use. Designated for God’s purposes. In particular, we look to dedicated our hole selves - time, talent and treasure. How much do you have to concentrate? Is that the right question to ask? |
The Rev. Dr. William Gilroy | |

1/17/2016 | Jesus 1st Miracle: Water into Wine Turning water into wine would be a neat talent to have at a party, but what does Jesus do with this ability? Why was it considered so important that people have passed it down for 2,000 years? |
Rev. Dr. Mike McQuaid | |

12/24/2015 | MESSY Christmas Countless times, people have told me, "Pastor, thanks for the invitation to come to church, but I really need to get my life in order before I come to God's house." Though we may want our lives clean and pristine, we fail time and again. On Christmas night, God comes right into our MESSY lives with good news of great joy. |

12/13/2015 | Fire & Joy Sometimes we come to believe that, as long as we believe in Jesus, life is going to go smoothly, gently and easily. Today's text teaches otherwise. It uses the image of fire in several ways. How does joy fit in? |

9/20/2015 | Receive this Child How do you respond to children? Jesus teaches that his followers are to welcome children. Does that mean we all need to work in a childcare facility? Let’s explore the wider meaning and call to action of Jesus’ teaching. |

9/13/2015 | Lose Your Life When we believe in Jesus Christ, we have access to God's G.R.A.C.E., that is God's riches at Christ's expense. What more do we need to gain? What do we have to lose? |

5/24/2015 | Revealing Truth A fib – not the bad heart rhythm – but a little, white lie, a half-truth. You know, “spin,” “hype,” “politics,” “propaganda,” “hidden agenda” – the opposite of truth; the lack of truth. Jesus said he would send his Spirit of Truth to guide us into all the truth. What is truth? |

2/8/2015 | Prescribing Life If you get a new illness or injury and need a new doctor, how do you decide which doctor to choose? “Location, location, location”? Least expensive? Most attractive? OR, the one with the most healthy patients? Last week, our second thru fifth graders were taught by parents, grandparents, and/or guardians, along with some “OWLs” (Older, Wiser Lutherans with some additional life experience and/or training in the Bible) how to use the Bible, God’s word. Today, on this busy Sunday as we celebrate this Bible milestone as part of our Household Ministry, we take a quick look at whose word is good. |

1/18/2015 | Come and See Today, I begin with a personal sharing. Carol, my wife, when we were starting to date, and still to this day, has an uncanny, almost prophetic, ability, to ask questions that go straight to the heart. I believe this ability is a spiritual gift that comes from God, as we see Jesus demonstrate on the much deeper, even miraculous, level in his encounter with Nathanael. Come and See Jesus. |

11/9/2014 | Wake Up Call Jesus uses the parable of the bridesmaids, their oil lamps and a long-awaited bride groom. What does it mean to have enough oil in our lamps? Are we going to miss out on something important yet to come? Jesus wants to make sure we don't miss it. The parable itself is our wake up call, an urgent plea for living here and now in the reality of Christ's coming among us. |

8/10/2014 | Silencing the Wind In a world filled with noise and empty words, God comes to us as stillness and silence, even to the point that wind ceases (Matt. 14:32). Jesus walks over stormy waters to his disciples, entering their boat and being present with them despite their fears and doubts. Today we are encouraged to lay aside our little faith with its wordy worries, and listen for God, who comes to us as quieting comfort. |

7/27/2014 | God's Hidden Power When Jesus tries to describe the power of God in parables, he chooses very different images: a bit of yeast being mixed into dough; a tiny seed growing, hidden in the ground. The power of God does amazing things though - raising a huge amount of dough, enough to feed a village; growing into a plant so large it can shelter many. It is a power to grow that acts from within. |
