A Sermon for Trinity Sunday, June 16, 2019 I am of the opinion that it’s nearly impossible to speak about the Trinity without committing heresy unless one is simply repeating the great creeds of the Church. Some of you will remember from a comedic video I played one night after one of our theme dinners in which Saint Patrick tries to explain the Trinity to two simple Irishmen by way of analogy. The point of that video is to say The post Faith in the Triune God appeared first on St. Dunstan's Anglican Church.

The world needs to see and feel and experience the love of Jesus, and if the church is the body of Christ, and it is, then when the world asks to see the wounds of Christ, the proof of his love, then we must show them our wounds, but we can only do that if we have first been wounded.

Because this day isn’t just about his resurrection, it’s about our resurrection too. They are the same. His now; ours later. The post The Future is Now appeared first on St. Dunstan's Anglican Church.

Jesus gave up everything for the good of others. Jesus died for others. Jesus loved others so fiercely that he ended up on a Roman cross. And that is truth.

Although he is the king of kings and Lord of lords, he comes to you not as a king like Judas or Antiochus or Caesar, but as the sacrifice, the lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world, the lamb of God who shows the world the things that make for peace.

God had freed us from sin, death, and the devil, baptized us into the Messiah, leads us by the Spirit, and feeds with spiritual food and drink not so we can go on living however we please but so that we can be the people that God has called us to be. The post Overthrown in the Wilderness appeared first on St. Dunstan's Anglican Church.
