Sermon on Mary

Last updated on: December 19, 2011 at 5:14 pm By Nadia Bolz Weber

I have this memory from when I was 12 years old of going to a friend’s house for a sleepover and feeling quietly scandalized by something I discovered about her and her family. No, they weren’t heroin addicts or part of an armed militia. They. Were. Catholic. And they weren’t even trying to hide it. Seeing the images of Mary all over their house….well, this Church of Christ girl wouldn’t have been more scandalized if those pictures in their living... Read more

Jesus Walking on the Water – A Sermon Sarcastic and Serious

Last updated on: December 14, 2011 at 11:10 pm By Nadia Bolz Weber

It’s Jesus walking on the water Sunday here at House for All Sinners and Saints and we thought maybe during Open Space we should have a kiddie pool set up in the back so you could all “test your faith”. You know – go ahead and give it the old Christian try. That’s how I’ve always heard this story preached: like it’s the Little Engine Who Could Have.

Last updated on: August 11, 2014 at 8:15 pm By Nadia Bolz Weber

Matthew 13 1He put before them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that someone took and sowed in his field; 32it is the smallest of all the seeds, but when it has grown it is the greatest of shrubs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and make nests in its branches.” 33He told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a woman took and mixed in...

Sermon on Isaiah 55, The Parable of the Sower and those big talking trees from Lord of the Rings

Last updated on: December 14, 2011 at 11:14 pm By Nadia Bolz Weber

My favorite characters in the Lord of the Rings are the Ents. These were an ancient race of giant living talking breathing trees in Tolkien’s Middle Earth. So I have a little confession to make: whenever I hear that reading we just heard from Isaiah 55 where it says The mountains and hills before you shall burst into song and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands. I always picture the Giant Ents from Lord of the... Read more
