Being in the Right Mind | Psalm 1 & Philippians 2:1–11 In a world that often rewards pride, certainty, and self-interest, what would it look like to have the mind of Christ? In this sermon, Rev. Dr. Lewis Galloway reflects on Paul's letter to the Philippians and the beautiful hymn describing Christ's humility. Rather than calling Christians to think alike, Paul invites us to share a common way of living—one marked by compassion, service, and self-giving love. Drawing on stories of ordinary people whose quiet acts of kindness transformed those around them, Lewis explores how the pattern of Christ's life becomes the pattern for our own. What if true strength looks like humility? What if real leadership begins with serving others? And what if the most beautiful thing we could create is a community shaped by the love of Christ? This message is an invitation to let go of pride, embrace humility, and discover the profound beauty that emerges when we learn to think, love, and live like Jesus. Preached by Rev. Dr. Lewis Galloway at First Presbyterian Church of Charlotte on July 19, 2026.

When life feels hard, it's easy to wonder, Why bother? But what if God's kingdom grows precisely in those unexpected places?In this episode of Holy Shenanigans, Pastor Tara Lamont Eastman reflects on Jesus' parables of the sower, the mustard seed, and the yeast to discover how God's generous love takes root through even the smallest acts of mercy and hope. Sharing the story of transforming a tiny, clay-filled garden into a place of beauty and abundance, Tara explores what it means to prepare our hearts as "good soil" and partner with God in cultivating new life.Whether you're facing rocky ground, stubborn obstacles, or wondering if your efforts matter, this conversation offers encouragement to keep planting seeds of grace. Because God's love has a way of growing where we least expect it—and even the smallest acts of faith can become gardens of hope.Join us as we imagine what might flourish when we choose to sow generously, trust God's surprising abundance, and become good soil for faith, hope, and love.Send Tara a Text Message
A Life Worth Living | Jeremiah 15:15–21 & Philippians 1:1–11, 27–30 What keeps us grounded when life feels uncertain? In this sermon, Rev. Dr. Lewis Galloway reflects on Paul's letter to the Philippians and the prophet Jeremiah, exploring what it means to live a life rooted in faith, strengthened by community, and worthy of the gospel. Along the way, Lewis introduces a striking idea: that we can suffer from a kind of spiritual amnesia—forgetting who we are, where we've come from, and the God who has remained faithful through every season. Drawing on stories from everyday life, the early church, and the power of Christian friendship, this message reminds us that faith is sustained not only by personal devotion but by a community that remembers, encourages, serves, and prays together. What happens when we remember God's faithfulness? How do shared stories, worship, and acts of love shape our lives? And what does it look like to live "a life worthy of the gospel" in an uncertain world? This sermon offers a hopeful invitation to stand firm in Christ, remain rooted in community, and move into the future with courage. Preached by Rev. Dr. Lewis Galloway at First Presbyterian Church of Charlotte on July 12, 2026.
Before Amos was a prophet, he was a shepherd and a caretaker of sycamore fig trees. He did not come from the royal court or the religious establishment. He came from ordinary work. In this sermon from Eshel: Preaching the Trees, we consider the sycamore tree as a reminder that God's call often comes through everyday lives. Scripture repeatedly shows that faithfulness is not reserved for the powerful or accomplished. It is cultivated in ordinary places through ordinary people who are willing to respond. This message reflects on vocation, humility, and the dignity of honest work. God is not searching for extraordinary résumés. God calls people who are present, faithful, and willing to follow wherever that call may lead. Part of the Eshel: Preaching the Trees series. Sermon by Rev. Dr. Charlene Jin Lee Subscribe for weekly sermons from First Presbyterian Church of Dallas. fpcdallas.org

Message by Kerrie Bauer, recorded live July 5, 2026 at First Presbyterian Church of Bellingham. Scripture read by Pastor Doug Bunnell.Our Messy Bodies - Sacred or Profane?To Get: In spirit-breathed worship, God brings Christ's body to us; we bring our bodies to Christ.To Feel: Feel the embodiedness of true worship: at-one-ment with GodTo Do: I wonder - what does it look like for you to bring our body to God?How would you finish this sentence - my body is …?God views my body as …?How do you understand the function of your body in worship, in relationship to God?What gets in the way of you seeing yourself as Christ's body?Leviticus 15:28-33, Romans 12:1-5
What Belongs to God | Genesis 1:26–27 & Matthew 22:15–22 What if Jesus' famous words about Caesar and the coin are really about us? In this sermon, Rev. Anna Dickson explores one of Jesus' most well-known teachings through the lens of Genesis, where we learn that every person is created in the image of God. When Jesus asks whose image appears on a Roman coin, he invites his listeners to think beyond taxes and politics. If the coin bears Caesar's image and belongs to Caesar, what about those who bear God's image? This message is a reminder that our deepest identity is not found in what we own, what we accomplish, or what the world says about us. We belong to the God who created us, loves us, and calls us by name. As we learn to live from that identity, we begin to see ourselves and our neighbors differently. We discover that every person carries the image of God and is worthy of dignity, compassion, and love. What belongs to God? The answer is more personal—and more hopeful—than we often imagine. Preached by Rev. Anna Dickson at First Presbyterian Church of Charlotte on July 5, 2026.
When God calls Jeremiah to be a prophet, the first question is surprisingly simple: "What do you see?" Jeremiah sees an almond branch, the earliest tree to bloom at the edge of winter. God responds, "You have seen well, for I am watching over my word to perform it." In this sermon from Eshel: Preaching the Trees, we explore the almond tree as a sign of God's attentiveness. Long before the landscape appears changed, the almond blossoms announce that something new is already beginning. This message reflects on spiritual attentiveness, calling, and the faith to recognize God's work before it becomes obvious. The God of Scripture is never absent or asleep. Even in seasons that seem quiet, God is watching, speaking, and bringing new life. Part of the Eshel: Preaching the Trees series. Sermon by Rev. Amos J. Disasa.

The Shape of Freedom | Proverbs 3:3–8 & Galatians 5:1, 13–26 What does it really mean to be free? In this sermon, Rev. Dr. Lewis Galloway reflects on Paul's letter to the Galatians and the surprising truth that Christian freedom is not the absence of responsibility but the freedom to become the people God created us to be. Through stories of everyday faithfulness, reflections on the Fruit of the Spirit, and the wisdom of Proverbs, Lewis explores the difference between a life driven by self-interest and a life shaped by God's Spirit. Too often, we think of freedom as the ability to do whatever we want. But Paul offers a different vision. In Christ, we are set free from fear, striving, and the need to earn God's love so that we can love others with joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Rather than focusing only on avoiding what is wrong, this message invites us to pursue what is good—to become people whose lives bear the fruit of the Spirit and reflect the love of Christ in our homes, our communities, and our world. Because the shape of Christian freedom is love. Preached by Rev. Dr. Lewis Galloway at First Presbyterian Church of Charlotte on June 28, 2026, the Fifth Sunday after Pentecost.
In Zechariah's vision, the angel of the Lord stands among the myrtle trees in a quiet valley. It is not a place of triumph or spectacle, but of waiting, listening, and hope. In this sermon from Eshel: Preaching the Trees, we explore the myrtle tree as a sign of God's consolation. While the world often celebrates what is large, impressive, and immediate, Scripture reminds us that God is also present in what is quiet, overlooked, and patiently unfolding. This message reflects on the comfort God offers in seasons of uncertainty and the steady hope that grows through ordinary faithfulness. Consolation is not the absence of hardship. It is the assurance that God has not forgotten us, even while we wait. Part of the Eshel: Preaching the Trees series. Sermon by Rev.

God's Big Idea | Genesis 12:1–4 & Galatians 3:19–4:7 What if God's vision for the world is bigger than we imagine? In this sermon, Rev. Dr. Lewis Galloway explores the promise God made to Abraham and Sarah, the freedom Christ offers through grace, and the remarkable invitation to become part of God's family. From the very beginning, God's purpose was never limited to one people or one place. Through Abraham and Sarah, God promised a blessing that would extend to all the families of the earth. Generations later, Paul reminds us that in Christ we are no longer separated by status, background, or circumstance, but adopted as beloved children of God. Through stories of faith, hospitality, and transformation, this sermon reflects on the ways God's dream continues to challenge human boundaries and call us toward a more expansive vision of community. What happens when we make room for the people God is already welcoming? And what might the church become if it truly embraced God's big idea? At its heart, this message is a reminder that God's grace is always reaching wider, God's family is always growing, and God's dream for the world has room for all. Preached by Rev. Dr. Lewis Galloway at First Presbyterian Church of Charlotte on June 21, 2026.

When God commands the construction of the ark of the covenant, the chosen material is not cedar from a distant forest or some rare and noble wood. It is acacia, a rough desert tree growing in the wilderness. In this sermon from Eshel: Preaching the Trees, we consider what it means that God builds holy things from ordinary materials. Again and again, Scripture reveals a God who works with what is already present, shaping the available rather than waiting for the ideal. The acacia tree reminds us that faith is always contextual. God meets people where they are, in the landscapes they actually inhabit, and forms something sacred from the resources already at hand. This message reflects on vocation, place, and the surprising ways God transforms the ordinary into a dwelling place for the holy. Part of the Eshel: Preaching the Trees series. Sermon by Rev.

A Faith That Lives in You | 2 Timothy 1:1–7 In this special installation service sermon, Rev. Dr. Millie Snyder reflects on Paul's words to Timothy and the faith that was nurtured in him through family, community, and the care of those who walked alongside him. Whether we inherit faith from those who came before us or discover it later in life, this message reminds us that faith is rarely formed alone. It grows through relationships, belonging, encouragement, mentorship, and the steady presence of people who help us recognize God's work in our lives. Drawing on memories of Sunday School classrooms, youth groups, mission trips, church choirs, and faithful role models, Rev. Snyder explores what it means to cultivate a faith that becomes woven into the fabric of who we are. In a rapidly changing world, how do we nurture faith in ourselves, our children, our communities, and future generations? This sermon offers a hopeful answer: faith is not simply taught—it is shared. It is nurtured in community. It is strengthened through hospitality, welcome, and relationships rooted in grace. As First Presbyterian Church celebrates the installation of Rev. Lucy Baum as Associate Pastor for Formation and Fellowship, this message serves as a reminder that faith formation belongs to all of us. Because faith is a team sport. And together, we are all on the team. Preached by Rev. Dr. Millie Snyder at First Presbyterian Church of Charlotte on June 14, 2026.
Long before David and Goliath face one another in the Valley of Elah, the ground beneath them already carries a history. The terebinth tree stands as a witness to conversations unfinished, conflicts unresolved, and stories that continue shaping the present long after they seem forgotten. In this sermon from Eshel: Preaching the Trees, we consider how buried history influences the lives we live today. Scripture reminds us that no moment arrives in isolation. We inherit relationships, wounds, promises, and questions from those who came before us. This message reflects on memory, reconciliation, and the courage required to face what remains unfinished. Sometimes faithfulness begins not by moving on, but by paying attention to the stories that still live beneath the surface. Part of the Eshel: Preaching the Trees series. Sermon by Rev. Amos J. Disasa. Subscribe for weekly sermons from First Presbyterian Church of Dallas. fpcdallas.org

We welcome Matthew Adams, senior pastor of First Presbyterian Church in Dillon, South Carolina, to discuss his book Act Like a Man: Understanding the Biblical Call to Masculinity, published by Christian Focus. Adams argues for a vision of manhood grounded in Scripture and formed by the Holy Spirit rather than by cultural capitulation, reactionary posturing, or online personality-driven models of masculinity. The conversation considers why the doctrine of Scripture and the work of the Spirit must come before any faithful account of biblical masculinity. Adams unfolds five marks of manhood—righteous living, sacrificial love, dependent leadership, courageous zeal, and humble servanthood—using David's life as both a positive and negative example that ultimately points to Christ. The episode also addresses contemporary challenges in the church, the need for fathers and elders to disciple younger men, and the importance of presence, faithfulness, and generational responsibility in the home and covenant community.
