Resurrection South Austin

We hear talk about money so often as bad news. But the Kingdom of God puts money, wealth, greed, and anxiety in a different light altogether. Listen as Fr. Shawn shares the good news we have in becoming a generous community.

'Tis the season of maxed-out credit cards, indulgence, and the look of happiness—But for the Church, Advent is the time we get honest about our deepest wounds, pains, and brokenness, because the time of our salvation is drawing near. The time, according to Paul, is that liminal moment between the night being “far gone” and the sun breaking in. The darkness is departing more and more, and the light...

How do you "keep politics out of the Church" when the Church's most important announcement is about the "Kingdom of God"? The word "Kingdom" is a realm or space of real power, authority, and governance. What does it mean to belong to that in a world so confused power and dominated by partisan politics? And how do we live as those who belong to Jesus’ Kingdom? And is any of this Good News for us to...

Is it Advent yet? The day is coming when God will come and set things right. This Sunday, Deacon Ryan explores how we can live lives of wholeness and goodness anticipating the coming of the Lord.

In the resurrection, Jesus tells us, things will be different. The need to make a name for yourself or secure a reputation, are all put away when Christ makes us "children of God" and raises us to new life. That is a real hope to live on.

All Saints gives us a moment to embrace and celebrate a part of our worldview as Christians, that we join a holy family that stretches through time and space made in Christ. It’s kind of like a reunion of the eternal church, we realize we’re not alone in here, and we’re reminded just how weird our whole family is.

We believe in God. We don’t just say this in the creed, we believe that when we gather God is present and at work in us and in the world. God gave us the world he created, He gave us life, gives us direction, he gives healing and rescue, He gives new insight by revealing and correcting, He gives blessing and gives justice. We believe in a God who gives. It’s the mystery we call grace. But in a cul...

If you were given all the power you needed right now, what would you do with it? We all know a lot of people who use power badly, we all wish we had more power to exercise in our own lives, and we all might think the way we would use power would be the best way to use it. The truth is, power is like an amplifier of our inner life. It takes whatever is in us and pours it out. This morning I want to...

What does your bank account say about the condition of your soul and what you love? Our world might say, “who needs God’s grace when you’ve got a pile of cash?” We live in a world where everything is given a cash value, even relationships, and meaning and purpose--things that are priceless. Time is money, you might even hear. Making money a master is really bad news for so many and does incredible...

In a culture like ours, where everything is for sale, gifts have strings attached, everyone feels under-appreciated, and so many are in debt to something—the simple announcement that we are saved by a God who gives, is almost impossible to hear, let alone understand. But when God’s giving meets real human sin, it is a real salvation. Join us in this series as we explore the mystery of God's grace,...

The Cost and Companionship of Following Jesus- Deacon Ryan Boettcher by Resurrection South Austin

Whether you believe in God or not, sometimes our lives function as if he isn’t really there, attentive to our big questions and needs. This is a really hard way to live, and a hard habit to change. This morning our readings lead us to this realization, that God has created humanity for a good reason, with intentions to live with us and lead us.

Sixth Sunday after Pentecost - Mr. Thomas Magbee by Resurrection South Austin

What took hold of an early church community was that the grace of God was actually bearing fruit, demonstrating a love in the Spirit, "Just as it is bearing fruit and growing in the whole world, so it has been bearing fruit among yourselves from the day you heard it and truly comprehended the grace of God." (Col 1:6)

"Bear one another's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ." This week we explore the gift of solidarity in human community that the Gospel brings to the church and to the world.
