My sermon from this morning, as part of the Fearless Prayer series.

Whether it's family, friend, or romantic, we all have relationships throughout our lives. It's important, though, to remember that we are already worth being loved, already enough, and then do our best to show others the same.

There is no way I'm going to listen through these to see which is better, as I'm a horrible judge of that for myself. So I'm including both the 9:30 traditional sermon and the 11:00 traditional sermon. They are essentially the same, with a few differences depending upon what caught my attention in the moment. Enjoy!

Whether it's family, friend, or romantic, we all have relationships throughout our lives. It's important, though, to remember that we are already worth being loved, already enough, and then do our best to show others the same.

Regardless of the type of relationship, it's important to know that we are worth being loved, even as we are. Changing or doing something to "earn" love isn't a true type of love.

This morning's sermon (from me) about letting go of our limits, because God's love for us is limitless.

Occasionally we take a "wrong turn," and the temptation is to keep going, to cover it up...to try to hide. However, it's always better to face up early rather than late; to be the ones who admit to our wrongs, rather than have someone "tell on us."

My sermon from this morning on Anger. And the Hulk.

In our lives, there are certain points where our decisions can lead to greatness...or...not.

Seeing injustice, hatred, suffering...and doing nothing is playing a part in it.

There is much more to the Christmas story than what we see

We sometimes make it too hard, but life comes down to treating others with respect, kindness, and love.

No one believed Joseph and Mary, yet they continued forward, even traveling over 80 miles across the desert. They weren't perfect, but they persisted and showed faith, doing all they could to overcome each obstacle that arose...and they were just normal people, like you and me.

Always do your best to grow, to love, to be thankful...to show others who you really are, not who you hope to be someday.

Loving everyone is tough, but it's important. Show empathy, understanding, and the same we respect you expect others to show you.

Being like Jesus means showing humanity, love, respect...and actually being LIKE Jesus.

Everyone goes through bad times, some worse than others, but instead of focusing on how "the other 9" are handling it, do your best to treat others as you'd want to be treated...even when you're at your worst.
