Waters Ave Sermoncast Chris Kravitz

In this sermon, Chris explores passages from Exodus and Jeremiah that deal with the idea of God's wrath. We find some interesting points about how to think about these texts in general and how they can apply to our modern situation. Tying them in to some words of Jesus from the gospel of Luke, we find a call to leave behind our current path towards destruction and embrace the work of building the common good.

In this sermon, Keith walks us through the question, "What is the meaning of life?" Beginning with Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy and moving to Jesus' discussion in John 10, he makes the point that meaning is our to create. We are meaning creators, because we are divine. 

In this sermon, Jon Dengler from The Well takes us through a theological reflection of work. We discover from the early stories of Genesis that we are who we are meant to be when engaged in meaningful work, and we hear a call to renew and restore our relationship to the idea of work. 
 
Preached 6/30/19

In this sermon, Chris begins a series exploring Galatians chapter 5 where Paul contrasts the works of the flesh with the fruit of the Spirit. We look at what these terms mean and what they don't mean as we begin to find ways in which this passage can speak to us today.
Preached 6/16/19

In this sermon, Chris explores the story of the Ascension of Christ and explores why it was so important to the early Christians as well as what it might mean for us today. We hear within Ascension a call for allegiance to something greater than any nation or leader and a reshaping of how we view ourselves within this world.

In this final week of Easter we did something special and had three mini-sermons. Rachel, Keith, and Chris all share from a lectionary reading of their choosing from this day and put their own spin on it as they encourage us to live within an Easter reality.
