St. Peter's Fireside

This Sunday is known as “Trinity Sunday.” Now that the Holy Spirit has been poured out at Pentecost, God has been revealed as One God in Three Persons.

This Sunday is the Feast of Pentecost - a day we remember how powerfully the Holy Spirit was "poured out" on the early church. But Pentecost is much more than a commemoration - it's an invitation! This Sunday, we'll learn about one of the most enduring prayers of the church, "Come, Holy Spirit," and explore how we might join with this prayer in our lives as individuals, families, and a church. To...

Join us this Sunday as we continue in our series in the book of Revelation. Join us Sunday as Marion concludes our Eastertide Apocalypse series speaking on the last words of Revelation (which are also the last words of the Bible!) in a sermon called Last Words for the Last Days.

This Sunday we reach the climax of the Book of Revelation. In our texts this week, God is making all things new. We will read of a New Heavens and a New Earth, together with the New Jerusalem coming down to earth from heaven. Read Revelation 21 & 22 to prepare.

Join us this Sunday as we continue in our series in Revelation. This Sunday, we’ll be getting two (short) sermons for the price of one. Continuing in our “Eastertide Apocalypse” series, Grady will preach out of Revelation 6 & 7. Then, before we celebrate baptisms, Grady will do a little teaching on why we baptize infants at St Pete’s and why we ask that folks be baptized before receiving Communion...

Last week, Grady kicked off our 7-week series through the book of Revelation. If you haven't yet listened to his sermon, I encourage you to go and listen to it before this coming Sunday. This Sunday, we will continue our journey through this strange book by diving into Revelation 5, where we will explore the meaning of the strange sealed scroll, we will look at the significance of the tears of the...

Join us as Phill preaches for Easter Sunday!

This Sunday, Hosea will preach about the (ugly) beauty of our crucified King and invite us into the paradoxical glory of the Holy Week.

As the season of Epiphany rolls on, our gospel passage this week gives us another opportunity to behold the glory of Jesus. We'll hear how Jesus returned to his hometown to preach a potent gospel sermon. His sermon boldly revealed who he was, and what his mission and ministry would be all about. But could his hearers receive his message? Can we today?

We are continuing our journey through the season of Epiphany, a season where we look at the many ways that Christ revealed himself to the world. This Sunday we will explore the deeper meaning behind Jesus’ first miracle at the wedding in Cana—turning water into wine. The miracle of turning water into wine is often seen as a curious or simple act, maybe even a party trick, yet it holds deep theolog...

This Sunday we celebrate Epiphany, the manifestation of Christ’s divinity to the nations. In our first reading, the Prophet Isaiah exhorts God’s people saying, “Arise! Shine!” (Isa 60:1).

Join us this Sunday! As we enter the third week of Advent, our attention shifts from the final coming of Christ to his presence in our life here and now and in our readings for this Sunday, we see that Christ's presence invites two seemingly contradicting responses: Rejoicing and repenting. This Sunday, we will explore Paul's radical claim to rejoice always and Johns's call to bear fruit in line w...

Join us this Sunday, the Second Sunday of Advent. The second week of Advent has traditionally been the time to reflect on God’s judgment. The final judgment can feel like a scary thing, so why do we hope for it to come? This Sunday, from Malachi 2:17–3:5, Hosea will explain why God’s advent as a Judge is good news, both for Christians and for the world.

This week our readings remind us of the future Coming of the Son of Man in power and great glory. What will be the signs of his coming, and how are Christians called to respond?
