#26 in our series, "The Book of Romans: A Theology of Hope"
Are we actually a “melting pot”… or three of them? On Today's Episode, we unpack Will Herberg's 1955 idea of the Triple Melting Pot—how 20th-century immigrants didn't just blend into one “American,” but largely assimilated along religious lines: Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish. We track how parish schools, marriage patterns, and urban political machines forged identity—and how that fed party politics from Boston ward bosses to Nixon's “silent majority.” Then we fast-forward: shifting definitions of “whiteness,” interfaith marriage today, and what current immigration waves might mean for the next American identity.

Audio Recording Sermon OutlineSpeaker: Rev. Tim ChangSermon Series: Imagining the Church1 Corinthians 12:12-27 (ESV)12 For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ. 13 For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—Jews or Greeks, slaves or free—and all were made to drink of one Spirit.14 For the body does not consist of one member but of many. 15 If the foot should say, “Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body,” that would not make it any less a part of the body. 16 And if the ear should say, “Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body,” that would not make it any less a part of the body. 17 If the whole body were an eye, where would be the sense of hearing? If the whole body were an ear, where would be the sense of smell? 18 But as it is, God arranged the members in the body, each one of them, as he chose. 19 If all were a single member, where would the body be? 20 As it is, there are many parts, yet one body.21 The eye cannot say to the hand, “I have no need of you,” nor again the head to the feet, “I have no need of you.” 22 On the contrary, the parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable, 23 and on those parts of the body that we think less honorable we bestow the greater honor, and our unpresentable parts are treated with greater modesty, 24 which our more presentable parts do not require. But God has so composed the body, giving greater honor to the part that lacked it, 25 that there may be no division in the body, but that the members may have the same care for one another. 26 If one member suffers, all suffer together; if one member is honored, all rejoice together.27 Now you are the body of Christ and individually members of it. Sermon Outline1. We are unique members [12] For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ…[14] For the body does not consist of one member but of many... [20] As it is, there are many parts, yet one body... [27] Now you are the body of Christ and individually members of it. [22] the parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable, [23] and on those parts of the body that we think less honorable we bestow the greater honor, and our unpresentable parts are treated with greater modesty, [24] which our more presentable parts do not require. But God has so composed the body, giving greater honor to the part that lacked it [15] If the foot should say, “Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body,” that would not make it any less a part of the body. [16] And if the ear should say, “Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body,” that would not make it any less a part of the body. 2. We belong to the body of Christ [13] For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—Jews or Greeks, slaves or free—and all were made to drink of one Spirit. [25] …that the members may have the same care for one another. [26] If one member suffers, all suffer together; if one member is honored, all rejoice together. [21] The eye cannot say to the hand, “I have no need of you,” nor again the head to the feet, “I have no need of you.” 3. This is God's design [18] God arranged the members in the body, each one of them, as he chose [24] God has so composed the body Genesis 2:23 - Then the man said, “This at last is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh.”Prayer of ConfessionAlmighty God, you created us for connection, not isolation. You arranged every member of Christ's body as indispensable, and your design is beautiful. Yet we confess our sins. We bring division, we measure people's worth wrongly, we see ourselves too highly and others too lowly. Instead of strengthening the body, we weaken it. Forgive us, O Lord. Turn our eyes to Jesus, whose body was broken to make us whole. May we live each day assured that we belong to him, for we are bone of his bones and flesh of his flesh. Amen.Questions for ReflectionWhat connected with you from the sermon or the passage?Paul says each member of the body of Christ has value and worth, not just usefulness. Why do you think it's hard for us to believe this about ourselves or others?Describe a time when you felt overlooked or undervalued in the church or elsewhere? How did that affect you?What's the most meaningful encouragement you've ever received, and why did it resonate with you? How might we grow our church's culture of encouragement? Think of a time when someone “suffered with you” or “rejoiced with you.” How did that experience shape your sense of belonging?We may not be best friends with everyone in church, but what's one simple step you could take to connect more meaningfully with someone you don't know well?What if the song that Adam sung to Eve (“This at last is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh”) is being sung over us by Jesus? How might that encourage you to know that you are intimately tied to Jesus? What do you sense God calling you to do from this passage?

Jeremiah Burroughs was a peace-loving Puritan. Without sacrificing the truth, he sought unity among those who professed it, and prayed, preached, and pleaded to that end. Indeed, Richard Baxter, who felt keenly the need for peace but struggled himself to promote it, once remarked that if all the Episcopalians had been like Archbishop [James] Ussher, all the Presbyterians like Stephen Marshall, and all the Independents like Jeremiah Burroughs, then the breaches of the church would soon have been healed.

Audio Recording Sermon OutlineSpeaker: Rev. Scott StrickmanSermon Series: Imagining the Church1 Timothy 3:14-16 (ESV)14 I hope to come to you soon, but I am writing these things to you so that, 15 if I delay, you may know how one ought to behave in the household of God, which is the church of the living God, a pillar and buttress of the truth. 16 Great indeed, we confess, is the mystery of godliness:He was manifested in the flesh, vindicated by the Spirit, seen by angels,proclaimed among the nations, believed on in the world, taken up in glory.Sermon OutlineThe church, as a household (v15), is the family of God.Church of The Living God (v15)The Mystery of Godliness (v16)How To Behave (v15)Prayer of ConfessionOur gracious heavenly Father, we are assembled before you, the living God. With honesty and humility, we confess our sins. We have not displayed the family likeness. We have not followed the ways of Christ. We have wandered and walked in the ways of the slanderer, the deceiver, the accuser, the liar, the murderer. We have compromised the truth. We have not acted with honor towards those in the household of faith, nor our neighbors. Forgive us. We thank you that Jesus is the way, the truth and the life. In this family gathering, renew us, nourish us, cleanse us, lead us. Amen.Questions for ReflectionIn what ways is a church like a family? Are there ways in which a church is not like a family? Why is the weekly pattern of assembling in the presence of the living God an essential part of the Christian life? (the word for “church”, ekklesia, also means an assembly)How is a Sunday worship service like a family gathering? How do falsehood and deception bring ruin? How do they turn people against God and one another?How is God's plan for all things held together in Christ? What makes Jesus the way, the truth, and the life?What can we do to keep focused on the things God has chosen to reveal? What things can we do while there is still much we don't understand?Why is it important that Christians get clear on how they are to behave? What are some of the characteristics of the family of God? What are some traits that all members of God's household should have?

Confessing Our Hope: The Podcast of Greenville Presbyterian Theological Seminary
Remember your leaders, those who spoke to you the word of God. Consider the outcome of their way of life, and imitate their faith. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.This podcast is built on a very simple conviction: in order to be faithful in the present, we must be rooted in the past. The old paths of Presbyterianism in the 18th and 19th century have much to teach us about the path we walk today.In weekly 30 minute episodes, we will reflect on the lives and works of figures such as Archibald Alexander, B.M. Palmer, and Charles Hodge. We will consider enduring themes–prayer, Christian experience, and the church–matters of eternal significance for the people of God until Christ returns.

Scott StrickmanSermon Series: Imagining the Church1 Peter 2:1-12 (ESV)1 So put away all malice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy and all slander. 2 Like newborn infants, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up into salvation— 3 if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good.4 As you come to him, a living stone rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious, 5 you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. 6 For it stands in Scripture:“Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone, a cornerstone chosen and precious,and whoever believes in him will not be put to shame.”7 So the honor is for you who believe, but for those who do not believe,“The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone,”8 and“A stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense.”They stumble because they disobey the word, as they were destined to do.9 But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. 10 Once you were not a people, but now you are God's people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.11 Beloved, I urge you as sojourners and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh, which wage war against your soul. 12 Keep your conduct among the Gentiles honorable, so that when they speak against you as evildoers, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day of visitation.Sermon OutlineWhat does it mean that the church is a “priesthood”?1. A Spiritual Housev5 you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthoodv11 I urge… to abstain from the passions of the flesh, which wage war against your soulvv1-2 put away all malice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy and all slander… long for… spiritual milk, that… you may grow up…2. A People Called with Mercyv7 “The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone,”v9 you are a chosen race… him who called you… out of darknessv10 Once you were not a people… but now you have received mercy3. Those Offering Sacrificesv3 if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good.v5 …offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christv9 that you may proclaim the excellencies…v12 Keep your conduct… honorable… Prayer of ConfessionAlmighty and most merciful Father, without your help we will lose the war against our souls. We confess our weakness. We have ignored or justified envy when we should have recognized it and turned from it. We are guilty of malice, deceit, hypocrisy and slander. As a church, we have been weak in proclaiming your excellencies and our good works have been insufficient. Forgive every sin. We thank you for the mercy we receive through Christ, who offered himself as a sacrifice on our behalf. Empower us with your Spirit to offer spiritual sacrifices that bring you glory. Amen.Questions for ReflectionDo you ever experience “war against your soul”? What feelings or experiences drain you (or feel like they are killing you)?What is your experience with envy? How does envy function in your life? Are you always aware when envy is at work within you?How does envy keep people stuck in misery? Why is it so hard to get free from envy?How is envy connected to malice, hypocrisy, slander and deceit?Why is it so important that God is merciful? How do we know God is merciful?How does God use the rejection of Jesus Christ to turn us from lifeless rocks to living stones? How does the resurrected Jesus call us out of darkness and into his marvelous light?Have you tasted that the Lord is good? Has your soul had any stirrings of life because of some connection with the goodness of God?What does it look like to make spiritual sacrifices through Christ? How does “proclaiming the excellencies of him who called you” (praise to God) help safeguard against envy?How does God use the church to fill the world with worship and good works? Where is the church failing in this calling? What can the church be doing in this period of time?

This podcast opens a broader series on the 1798 Rebellion, but also works as a stand alone episode.For over a century, Irish Catholics and Presbyterians were subjected to the Penal Laws. Although the vast majority of the population, they were banned from voting, sitting in parliament, bearing weapons, and entering many professions—the list goes on.This episode explores the deeply unequal society these laws created. By following the life of Emily Fitzgerald, who moved to Ireland in 1747, we gain a unique insight into this world. I explain how the Penal Laws emerged after a century of warfare, how Catholics resisted their brutal treatment, and how these laws created a deeply unequal and unstable society.To find our feet in this world, we begin in the harrowing winter of 1740, which led to the Year of Slaughter—the worst famine in Irish history.This podcast launches my series on the 1798 Rebellion.
