Sermons by Rev. Ross Davis
Sermon for Lent Midweek 1
[Machine transcription] In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. It was to be Passover like no other. This remembrance and celebration of the Lord delivering the children of Israel from the bondage in Egypt. This remembrance and celebration of truly becoming God’s people, of receiving His grace and fellowship. This remembrance and…
Sermon for the Purification of Mary and the Presentation of Our Lord
[Machine transcription] In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Well, dear brothers and sisters in Christ, maybe you’re thinking deja vu. If you’re thinking that you’ve recently heard today’s gospel lesson, you would be correct. Six weeks…
Sermon for Second Sunday after Epiphany
[Machine transcription] This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee and manifested his glory, and his disciples believed in him. Please be seated. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Dear brothers and sisters, this morning we hear a story about a wedding celebration that almost wasn’t—well, at least… maybe…
Sermon for Thanksgiving Eve
[Machine transcription] Dear Soren Frederick, who tonight has received new birth by the washing of water and the word, and all the baptized here in Christ Jesus, grace, mercy, and peace be to you from God our Father and from our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen. You know, I think in some ways the importance of Thanksgiving—when I say Thanksgiving, I mean the Thanksgiving with a…
Sermon for Twenty-fifth Sunday after Pentecost
[Machine transcription] In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Dear brothers and sisters, there is, in some of our churches today, I think there’s this tendency, or maybe an inclination, to take this gospel lesson about the widow and her offering, and extract…
Sermon for Fourteenth Sunday after Pentecost
[Machine transcription] In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Well, brothers and sisters, this morning we hear this particular word that Jesus uses. The Pharisees used it also, but Jesus uses it really kind of back against them. And we’re going to also not necessarily hear it in the lesson from Isaiah, but it’s kind of back…
Sermon for Third Sunday after Pentecost
[Machine transcription] In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, Amen. Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, this morning we have placed in front of us here at least this part of this Old Testament lesson from chapter 3 by the prophet Moses that we often refer to as The Fall. And if you look in your study Bible, it might actually be titled The…
Sermon for Seventh Sunday of Easter
[Machine transcription] Christ is risen. I think we could go ahead and end the service right now with that hymn. But if you were here a couple of weeks ago, you might be thinking, hey, what’s going on here? We sang this two weeks ago, and a few days ago, as Jonathan and I were here, he came over and we started talking. He said, you know, I’m thinking about…
Sermon for Second Sunday of Easter
[Machine transcription] Christ is risen. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. I think the main temptation with today’s readings, especially the gospel lesson, is for us to really only talk about what’s going on with Thomas because, after all, let’s admit it, he’s kind of an easy target to focus on. And we will talk…
Sermon for Good Friday Tre Ore 1
[Machine transcription] In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, amen. Jesus’ first words from the cross are an inaccessory prayer given up to his Father, but who were these words meant for? Was Jesus crying out on behalf of the Roman soldiers, the ones who flogged him mercilessly, who mocked and ridiculed him and then drove the nails into…
