Sermon on Gratitude

Last updated on: October 18, 2016 at 7:57 pm By Nadia Bolz Weber

(click above to listen along) Recently one of you apologetically mentioned that you have been meaning to write me a thank-you note about something and given our Gospel reading about the grateful healed leper, I began thinking about what a terrible thank-you note writer I am. Not for lack of trying on my mom’s part, I mean, Peggy did everything she could. And like every other kid who received a 10 dollar bill in their birthday card, I was expected to... Read more

Glimpses of the kingdom – a Travelogue Sermon

Last updated on: September 20, 2016 at 9:37 pm By Nadia Bolz Weber

(click above to listen along) I missed you guys. So much. But given my lack of sleep and my lack of presence in the community, much less in this country over the last month I must admit I don’t have a real sermon sermon for you. You might notice that I don’t tend to preach on Sundays that follow me being out of town. Apart from general tiredness and lack of time to do so, I also just think that... Read more

If you follow the HBO show Game of Thrones you know that there are a lot of very disturbing and violent things that transpire on the show.

Yeah. ANOTHER Sermon On Fear

Last updated on: August 9, 2016 at 4:09 pm By Nadia Bolz Weber

(click above to listen along!) Fear not, little flock. It is God’s good pleasure to give us the kingdom. Someone in a Q and A this year asked me: When do you feel the least afraid. I had never thought about that question but it didn’t take long to answer it. I said, I don’t think I am afraid when I am singing hymns. I had a wise friend who I’d call when I was filled with fear, worry and... Read more

Last updated on: July 7, 2016 at 12:32 pm By Nadia Bolz Weber

(click above to listen along.) About 15 years ago I had just a touch of hypochondria.

I was in my doctor’s office just about every month asking that he run tests since... Read more
