Silver Saints

In a culture that often overlooks the value of elders, the testimonies of two “silver saints,” Simeon and Anna, reveal what it means to recognize God’s presence in our midst. Their stories remind us of the power of prayer, praise and proclamation - and reveal how we, too, can live as beacons of hope and faith. A Sermon on Luke 2:22-40, preached for First Presbyterian Church of Napa on February 2, 2025.

What To Expect When You're Not Expecting

A sermon on Luke 1:26-28.

Preached for Miriam's Song Church on the Second Sunday of Advent, December 8, 2024.

Who We Are and Whose We Are

Throughout the Bible, humankind is said to “bear the image” of God, as ancient coins bore the image of Caesar. By suggesting that we give to God the “coin” that bears God’s image, Jesus invites us to “pay” our whole selves to God. Preached for First Presbyterian Church of Berkeley on October 22, 2023.

Sought, Seen, Selected

Dream Bigger

Amid the trauma of exile, Isaiah glimpsed a future where Israel would move from despair and loss to becoming a light for all people.
