Trinity Ky Sermons

Today we look at the Kingdom of Jesus, and how those around Jesus missed it, and how we still miss it!  Then we discuss the ancient Christian practice, a Rule of Life.  Join us as we seek to be intentional in our walk with the Lord.

Guest speaker Charlotte Duff leads us in discussing the practice of coming before God in Silence and Solitude.  Do we let business, distraction, fear or anxiety stop us from spending time in stillness with God?  God's invitation is to come to him in quiet and rest!

We continue our series on Spiritual Practices during the season of Lent.  Fasting is not a fun practice or something that many Americans practice, but it is a practice that deepens our intimacy with God and allows Him to shape us more into his disciples. 

Do you delight in Sabbath?  God invites us to Sabbath, as a reminder that it is him who makes us holy.  We rest with the rhythm of creation and seek a deeper intimacy with God. 

Ash Wednesday begins the journey of Lent and Jesus' intentional journey to the cross. Join us as we reflect on Ash Wednesday Invitations.

Today we learn from the story of Jesus' transfiguration and wonder how God might call us to cling to him in difficulty, confusion and when we can't tell why things are happening in our lives the way they are.

This week we wrap up our sermon series on Creation with the story of the fall and Original Sin.  Join us as we walk through this story and look that the implications in our lives. 

Do you have a theology of vocation?  God creates humans and gives them work to cultivate Eden and bring his goodness throughout the world. Today we look at the big story of scripture and how it encourages us to understand our work through the lens of cultivating Beauty, Abundance and Order in God's good world as his new creation is breaking in.  

Join us as we continue our series on Creation.  Our story tells us that our God made us in him image, which teaches us of the dignity, value and worth of every individual, as well as the great opportunity all of us have to do good with God.  We are also told that we are made of dust, which reminds us that we will die one day, and that as finite, created beings, we have limits.  God wants to meet u...

We continue our series on our Creation Story as we explore how God calls Creation Good!  This is essential to our understanding of the world, and how we are to live in it, responsible for caring for creation well.  We also discuss what the "New Creation" will be like when the Resurrection at the end of time comes.

We begin our series on the Creation Story in Genesis reflecting on how our God makes order out of chaos.  Creation is orderly and intentional.  Humans are then made to reflect God's image and given dominion on the earth to be people who bring about God's order here and now. 

Today we dive into the story of Simeon and Anna speaking and singing about the baby Jesus at the Temple.  Anna and Simeon both are wise old folks who have depth and intimacy in their relationship with God.  Perhaps they should be role models for us as we seek to live a life with God. 

Today we examine the Zechariah's story as the angel tells him his wife will be pregnant with a child who will be a prophet preparing Israel for the coming Messiah.  Zechariah's and Israel's longing asks us the question of longing... do we long for God?  Are we allowing God to form our desires and longings?  Ultimately, the Holy Spirit wants to invade our lives and fill us with joy a...

Join us as Charlotte Duff leads us in reflecting on Mary's story and how Mary responds to what could have been anxiety producing news.  Instead of descending into anxious preparation, Mary chooses to trust God's word, his goodness and shares the news with her cousin Elizabeth.  Join us as we seek to have a heart like Mary's.

Join us for the second week of Advent as our Lay Leader David Shaffer shares how Jesus, the Prince of Peace is the source of our Peace.  

Advent is upon us, the season in which we prepare and wait for the coming of Jesus at Christmas.  Join us as we explore the theme of waiting and look at stories from the Old Testament that teach us how God works in our waiting.

Do we believe what Jesus taught about money or do we believe the lie our culture tells?  Everything in our culture preaches the gospel of more, more, more, yet Jesus says that life does not consist in an abundance of possessions.  Join us as the Holy Spirit challenges us in our relationship to money and things. 

On Veterans' Day we honor our Veterans and ask the question... will you be enlisted in Christ's Kingdom?  Will you serve the poor and outcast, and give water to the thirsty?  Will you be the body, the hands and feet of Jesus to a needy world?

We wrap up our series with a discussion of how Christians should seek justice in our world.  We cannot give up on the biblical mandate to live in right relationship with those around us.  Christians throughout history have worked for justice in their day and cultural moment, we should do likewise.

The biblical mandate to Chesed, translated as: loving kindness, mercy or loyal love is very clear!  We as Christians are called to become like our God who is characterized by this loving kindness, even in the midst of divided times.  Will we be different than the rest of America this month?  Will we choose to allow Jesus to shape us toward kindness?

Join our conversation about the virtue of Humility in the Christian life. The Way of Jesus is one of humility, service and dying to ourselves but it is also the way of joy and peace and goodness.  Much of the world does after power and those who have inflated ego, but we follow the crucified messiah, who leads with humility. 

Today we start a new series on Micah 6:8 talking about how we engage as disciples.  Our scripture today reminds us that we follow a crucified Messiah, one who calls us to follow him to the cross.  Join us as we contrast the way of Barabbas and the way of Jesus. 

Join us as we finish up our series on discipleship to Jesus and discuss the cost of discipleship, what it takes and how good it is to follow Rabbi Jesus. 

Today we discuss the third goal of a disciple of Jesus, to carry on the work of Jesus... or to do the things he calls us to.  Much of what Jesus calls us to is intimacy and knowing him as well as allowing him to shape our character, but it must be lived out in our real lives.  It must translate to action and mission in our real lives.  What is He calling you to do today?

Today we discuss the 2nd goal in our definition of being a disciple, becoming like Jesus.  What does this look like for us?  And what would it look like if a whole group of people actually unified around this goal?  Moral beauty is something to behold.
