Nadia sermon new people 1 <——–Click here to listen along. Sermons are a spoken art form! John 3 16For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life. 17Indeed, God did not send the Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. 18Those who believe in him are not condemned; but those...

The Spiritual Practice of Saying “Yes!”

Last updated on: March 22, 2012 at 12:52 pm By Nadia Bolz Weber

Yesterday I wrote a blog post about the spiritual practice of saying “no”. I stand behind the suggestion that there is value in discerning what is ours to do and what is not ours to do and that a growing self-awareness around why we say yes or no is a good thing. The other side of knowing what is mine to do and what is not mine to do is this: The Spiritual Practice of Saying “YES”. Any Pastor or... Read more

The Spiritual Practice of Saying “No”. (sisters, take note)

Last updated on: March 21, 2012 at 11:55 am By Nadia Bolz Weber

I’ve had the weirdest thing happen recently. People have thanked me for saying no to them. Let me explain: A couple years ago I returned every email and FB message from strangers and seminary students and desperate pastors. All of them. I wanted to be like my friend Phyllis Tickle: gracious and accessible. But I’m not Phyllis Tickle and when I was really able to be honest with myself (which is rare and generally feels like torture), well, when I... Read more

Sermon on Losing Your Life and How Jesus Isn’t Your Magical Puppy

Last updated on: March 8, 2012 at 9:08 pm By Nadia Bolz Weber

Sermon Mark 8:31-37 <——-Click here to listen along. Sermons are a spoken form of communication! 31Then he began to teach them that the Son of Man must undergo great suffering, and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again. 32He said all this quite openly. And Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him. 33But turning and looking at his disciples, he rebuked Peter and said, “Get... Read more

the nonsense comments on the CNN post about me and 4 other women in religion

Last updated on: March 6, 2012 at 10:29 pm By Nadia Bolz Weber

Yesterday I was featured on the CNN website along with 4 other women in a post called “5 Women in Religion to Watch” I am usually not a big comment reader. I read them here on Sarcastic Lutheran, but when I write for God’s Politics or when an interview with me is published on-line I tend to stay away. If the comments are of the “Oh I just think you are so great” variety I am tempted to think... Read more

Sermon on the Transfiguration and How Seminary is Like Hogwarts

Last updated on: March 5, 2012 at 1:07 pm By Nadia Bolz Weber

Transfiguration sermon 2-19-12 <—-click to listen along! My friends joke about how useless a Masters of Divinity is outside the church. How having a degree from seminary is basically like having a degree from Hogwarts. Knowing all about the magic is just not that useful outside the “wizarding world”. This was confirmed for me this week as I prepared a sermon for this, the Feast of the Transfiguration since most of the Western world only associates Transfiguration with of Professor... Read more
