Grace Anglican Sermons

The Rev. Nick Lannon preaches a sermon on John 21, in which Jesus asks Peter three times if he loves him. Jesus is a redeemer, fixing the broken thing: our sin-caused separation from God.

The Rev. Todd Weedman preaches a sermon on John 20, in which the risen Jesus appears to Thomas. Christ has brought peace that soothes our fears, confronts our doubts, and that ends our vain striving.

The Rev. Nick Lannon preaches a sermon on Easter Sunday, on which we celebrate two incredible things: that Jesus was raised from the dead, and that he was raised from the dead to accomplish the salvation of sinners.

The Rev. Nick Lannon preaches a sermon for Good Friday. God turned his back on his son for a moment on the cross...so that he would never have to turn his back on you.

The Rev. Nick Lannon preaches a sermon for Palm Sunday. The Good News of Jesus Christ is that he came to save us while we were his enemies, screaming for his crucifixion. We become disciples not by our work, but by his.

The Rev. Nick Lannon preaches a sermon on Philippians 3, in which Paul lists his qualifications...and then calls them garbage. The only thing of value, he says, is knowing and being known by Jesus.

The Rev. Nick Lannon preaches a sermon on Luke 15, in which Jesus tells a parable about two lost sons. Both sons are obedient, but only to themselves. What we sinners need is a third son...one who is actually obedient to the Father and who then gives that obedience to us.

The Rev. Jacob Davis preaches a sermon on Exodus 3, in which God speaks to Moses from a burning bush. There is Good News here: God is holy, but uses the humbled; God is for us; God is known to us; and God is with us.

The Rev. Nick Lannon preaches a sermon on Genesis 15, in which God makes a covenant with Abram. This covenant is unique, though, in that God promises to uphold both ends of the deal.

On Ash Wednesday, the Rev. Nick Lannon preaches a sermon on Matthew 6, in which Jesus cautions against "practicing piety" in front of others. An ashen mark, then, is both a confession of need and an admission of reliance on the cross.

The Rev. Nick Lannon preaches a sermon on Luke 9, in which Jesus is transfigured. On the mountaintop, Jesus--the unique Son of God--gets set to accomplish his rescue of sinners.

The Rev. Nick Lannon preaches a sermon on Genesis 45, in which Joseph forgives his murderous brothers, and Luke 6, in which Jesus explains what true love looks like. We are able to love only because we have been previously--and supernaturally--loved by God in Christ.

The Rev. Nick Lannon preaches a sermon on 1 Corinthians 15, in which Paul says that yes, Jesus Christ really was in fact raised from the dead. This Good News means there is more Good News: you can be raised from the dead, too.

The Rev. Nick Lannon preaches a sermon on Luke 5, in which Peter tries to tell Jesus to go away. From a man who recognizes his own sinfulness, though, Jesus refuses to leave.

The Rev. Nick Lannon preaches a sermon on Nehemiah 8, in which the nation of Israel is reduced to tears by the reading of God's law. In Jesus, we have a savior who gave us his law-keeping in exchange for our sin and reconciled us to a holy God forever.

The Rev. Todd Weedman preaches a sermon on John 2, in which Jesus turns water into wine at a wedding. His interaction with his mother and subsequent miracle gives us great insight into the depth of his Good News for sinners.

The Rev. Nick Lannon preaches a sermon on Luke 3, in which Jesus is baptized. God confirms that Jesus is his son, and that he is very pleased. How is it that a sinner like you might please God? You can please God only in Christ.

The Rev. Nick Lannon preaches a sermon on Luke 2, in which the boy Jesus is found in the temple. Why do we know so little about the life of the young Jesus? The Gospel writers are laser-focused on...well, the Gospel: Jesus' death and resurrection to save sinners.

The Rev. Nick Lannon preaches a sermon on Luke 3, in which John the Baptist announces the coming of the Messiah. But what kind of Messiah will this be? Thankfully, the news is Good, even for sinners.

The Rev. Nick Lannon preaches a sermon on Malachi 3, in which the prophet compares God to a refiner's fire and fuller's soap. Our God will not allow any impurities in us...he burns us all the way down in order to raise us to new (and pure) life in Christ.
