What Comes Next? (Final)

Chad Brekke (Final Sermon) - The great theologian, Gerhard Forde, would often pose this question that every believer faces after the gospel is proclaimed; what comes next? After you have been claimed and made righteous, in spite of your own efforts, what comes next? This question points us toward an uncertain future, even as it reminds us that we do not go alone.

Ask Pastor Chad

Chad Brekke - As Pastor Chad prepares to head off into the sunset, let’s gather around for one last “ask the pastor” session before his retirement in a couple of weeks. Everything is fair game: the Bible, church, theology, retirement…

The Hope We Have

Chad Brekke - A wealthy boss was hoping that taking his religion seriously would get him in good with God. Even the disciples were shocked when they heard what it really takes. What hope do we have, they all wondered? What hope indeed.

Streams in the Desert (Final)

Natalia Terfa (Fina Sermon) - Reflections on the end of nearly 20 years of ministry at Prince of Peace and how God leads us through moments of change. Drawing on Isaiah 43, we explore God's promise of hope, even in the wilderness, and the idea that God's new work is always unfolding. How do we hold on to the past while trusting in the future? What does it mean to embrace God's new things?

The Good Ol Days

Natalia Terfa - Not too long after escaping Egypt, the Israelites long for “the way it used to be.” Never mind the many ways the old way was not good, healthy, or safe; they just knew what to expect and sometimes it’s just easier to do what you know than to stay in what you don’t. Sound familiar? Turns out God has a solution for this, and it might surprise you!

Afraid To Ask

Chad Brekke - The disciples prove along the way that they truly do not understand the radical nature of the kingdom now at hand. They argue and wonder about which of them is the most powerful and important but none of them dare to ask Jesus. Today we find out why.

Highs and Lows

Natalia Terfa - In today’s Gospel from Mark, we see Peter at both his highest and lowest points—first getting it right, and then so very wrong. It’s easy to judge Peter for his missteps, but if we look closely, we might see a reflection of ourselves in his actions. How is Peter’s journey a familiar pattern for all of us, especially in moments of doubt and growth? How do we handle it when following Jesus gets tough, and what does it mean to face both the highs and lows in faith?

Sneaking In

Chad Brekke - Have you ever gotten into someplace you really were not supposed to be? Maybe you moved down to better seats near the end of a ball game or found yourself up near the stage at a concert. People have always tried to limit access to Jesus to those with VIP status. Today we will take comfort in a couple people who found themselves in the front row!

Wash Your Hands

Natalia Terfa - Today’s Gospel may seem like a simple instructive, but it’s so much more. This story is a call for introspection and asking good questions, especially in the midst of things changing. Feels like maybe there might be a word for us right now in there too, doesn’t it?
