Christ Church Jerusalem

21 August 2022 - 11th Sunday After Pentecost - On his way to Jerusalem, Jesus healed a crippled woman on the Sabbath which resulted in a clash with a synagogue official. At first glance, this might seem to be just another encounter between Jesus and the religious authorities. Yet when viewed in its historic context, this incident may have more to do with human nature than just a theological issue...

24 July 2022 - Seventh Sunday After Pentecost - Prayer is more than simply talking to God. Prayer in Hebrew is a reflexive verb meaning that prayer has a very real effect on us.

10 July 2022 - Fifth Sunday after Pentecost - We are in a wonderful time in our cycle of readings, walking with Jesus to Jerusalem. I want to remind folks that Jesus’ teaching in Luke 10 is not just some ideal but was connected to the culture. In a day with no Internet, no podcasts, no YouTube, any itinerant teacher was “tested" with questions. It was not necessarily malicious. We must be grateful...

3 July 2022 - 4th Sunday after Pentecost - In our Gospel passage today, Jesus was aware that the national situation was desperate and people were growing frustrated and fearful, some even panicking and turning to extremism as they looked for the answer.

12 June 2022 - Trinty Sunday - In today's world, truth has become personalized and relative. It is no longer acceptable to speak of “the truth” but can say only “my truth” and “your truth.” In John’s Gospel, Jesus often speaks of “the truth" – which is a correct understanding of who He is, along with right living (doing the truth). Both are necessary to maintain that gift of divine life that we sh...

5 June 2022 - Pentecost - The day of Pentecost was a truly memorable day, especially for those disciples that received the outpouring of the Holy Spirit.

29 May 2022 - Seventh Sunday of Easter - The Ascension is a neglected event in Jesus' life, says Rev. David Pileggi. When we think of what saves us, many of us think of Jesus' death and resurrection. However, every aspect of Jesus' life ministers salvation to us -- from his birth all the way to the ascension, from his continuing ministry of intercession before the Father all the way to his coming...

22 May 2022 - Sixth Sunday of Easter - Our three scripture passages today are about Home. We all have a desire for the security, well-being and blessing that a home gives us. And no matter how good or how dysfunctional our childhood home was, we all know what the ideal home should be. But where can we find it? The biblical understanding is that home is in our relationship with God. It’s a gift tha...
