Sermons at St. Andrew’s

The Otherwayers
Jesus is the gate into God's kingdom, but we're constantly tempted to climb in some other way — each of which is really just forms of self-sufficiency that rob Jesus of his glory and rob his people of his grace. The good news is we don't have to scale the wall: there's a gate right there, and his name is Jesus.

Life of St. Andrew: Inspire
We have to be willing to give of what we have for the miracles of God to take place here.
Unquantifiable Faith
“Stop trying to quantify your faith. Faith is unquantifiable. If you would have the faith of a mustard seed, you can move mountains.”
Get Up and Go Out Through the Gate
If we don't go to the world the way Christ went to the world, then we may not realize that's where he is until it's too late.
Sanctifying Work
When our work becomes about Jesus, through his grace we continue the process of being made holy.
Weal and Woe
The ability of God to draw weal from woe is among the most important parts of who God is, and so is his ability to use the imperfect for his perfect will.
Good Work Broken
Knowing that our labor is within the scope of God's redemption makes it more valuable, not less so.
