  • Fifth Sunday of Easter 2025 - Rev. William H. Lamar IV
    2025/05/19
    This week sermon Rev. William Lamar IV explores the themes of resurrection, the importance of reading for preachers, the various forms of literacy, the role of imagination in faith, and the call to build a new Jerusalem. He emphasizes that God dwells among mortals and challenges the notion of escapism in theology, urging a commitment to understanding and engaging with the world.


    "The home of God is among mortals."

    John 13: 31-35 NRSVue
    When he had gone out, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man has been glorified, and God has been glorified in him. If God has been glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself and will glorify him at once. Little children, I am with you only a little longer. You will look for me, and as I said to the Jews so now I say to you, ‘Where I am going, you cannot come.’ I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.

  • Fourth Sunday of Easter 2025 - Rev. William H. Lamar IV
    2025/05/12
    rIn this powerful sermon, Rev. William Lamar IV addresses the themes of community, faith, and resilience in the face of societal challenges. He reflects on the Gospel of John, emphasizing the concept of the Good Shepherd and the idea of 'snatching'—the forces that seek to take away individuals and communities. The sermon calls for a shift from individualistic theology to a collective understanding of faith, urging the congregation to prioritize the well-being of the flock over individual desires. Rev. Lamar highlights the importance of recognizing the realities of the world while maintaining hope and solidarity within the community.

    Scripture Text:
    John 10: 22-30 NRSVue
    At that time the Festival of the Dedication took place in Jerusalem. It was winter, and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the portico of Solomon. So the Jews gathered around him and said to him, “How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Messiah, tell us plainly.” Jesus answered, “I have told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father’s name testify to me, but you do not believe because you do not belong to my sheep. My sheep hear my voice. I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one will snatch them out of my hand. 29 My Father, in regard to what he has given me, is greater than all, and no one can snatch them out of the Father’s hand. The Father and I are one. “Who are you?” because they knew it was the Lord.

He emphasizes the importance of feeding the hungry, both physically and spiritually, and challenges traditional views of Jesus by presenting Him as a cook who serves and nurtures. The discussion highlights the role of imagination in shaping our understanding of God and the world, urging listeners to embrace a resurrection imagination that fosters hope and justice.

    This week's text:
    John 21: 1-12 NRSVue
    After these things Jesus showed himself again to the disciples by the Sea of Tiberias, and he showed himself in this way. Gathered there together were Simon Peter, Thomas called the Twin, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples. Simon Peter said to them, “I am going fishing.” They said to him, “We will go with you.” They went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing.Just after daybreak, Jesus stood on the beach, but the disciples did not know that it was Jesus. Jesus said to them, “Children, you have no fish, have you?” They answered him, “No.” He said to them, “Cast the net to the right side of the boat, and you will find some.” So they cast it, and now they were not able to haul it in because there were so many fish. That disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his outer garment, for he had taken it off, and jumped into the sea. But the other disciples came in the boat, dragging the net full of fish, for they were not far from the land, only about a hundred yards off.When they had gone ashore, they saw a charcoal fire there, with fish on it, and bread. Jesus said to them, “Bring some of the fish that you have just caught.” So Simon Peter went aboard and hauled the net ashore, full of large fish, a hundred fifty-three of them, and though there were so many, the net was not torn. Jesus said to them, “Come and have breakfast.” Now none of the disciples dared to ask him, “Who are you?” because they knew it was the Lord.
