Should public schools require children to pray every morning? - Our fall intern is tackling the subject of Prayer in Public School from the pulpit this week, but I wanted to record some of my thoughts on the subject as well.

During my first year of ministry I attempted to tackle the question: "What happens to people of other faiths when they die?" I decided to break the sermon up into three mini-sermons on three different scriptures.

Part 4 in the series on Confronting Controversy. What does the bible say about Suicide? Why do we avoid talking about it in church? What happens to people who commit suicide?

Part 3 in the series on Confronting Controversy. Is the Death Penalty something Christians should support?

First sermon in a series on Confronting Controversy. The particular controversy was The Separation of Church and State.

Sermon offered on Luke 14.7-14

Sermon offered on the occasion of Preschool and High School Graduation Sunday.

Sermon offered at the beginning of Holy Week 2016. Rather than a general interpretation of a particular text, the sermon goes day by day through Jesus' final week.
