Episódios

  • Names of the Messiah: Prince of Peace

    23/12/2016 Duração: 16min

    This Advent, I am looking at the descriptins from Isaiah 9 of Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace. I am taking one each week in Advent. The sermon is inspired by the book Names of the Messiah by Walter Brueggemann. On the fourth Sunday in Advent, I look at the idea of Jesus as "Prince of Peace." This one is the easiest one to see Jesus in, but also the hardest for us to beleive in our broken world.

  • Names of the Messiah: Everlasting Father

    15/12/2016 Duração: 18min

    This Advent, I am looking at the descriptins from Isaiah 9 of Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace. I am taking one each week in Advent. The sermon is inspired by the book Names of the Messiah by Walter Brueggemann. On the third Sunday in Advent, I look at the idea of Jesus as "Everlasting Father." This title is a little hard for us to see Jesus in. First, we tend to think of Jesus as the Son and not the Father. Second, we don't often think of Jesus as everlasting, at least not in the past. 

  • Names of the Messiah: Mighty God

    05/12/2016 Duração: 19min

    This Advent, I am looking at the descriptins from Isaiah 9 of Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace. I am taking one each week in Advent. The sermon is inspired by the book Names of the Messiah by Walter Brueggemann. On the second Sunday in Advent, I look at the idea of Jesus as "Mighty God." I talk about how Jesus was truly God and yet truly human. I had two chairs set up, one on each side of me. One was labeled human and the other God. I used them when talking about whether Jesus was more one or the other, and then at put the papers together in a cumpled ball to show both humanity and divinity occupying the same space in Christ.

  • Names of the Messiah: Wonderful Counselor

    29/11/2016 Duração: 17min

    This Advent, I am looking at the descriptins from Isaiah 9 of Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace. I am taking one each week in Advent. The sermon is inspired by the book Names of the Messiah by Walter Brueggemann. On the first Sunday in Advent, I introduce the Isaiah passage and explore what it means that Jesus is Wonderful Counselor.  

  • Thankful to Christ the King

    29/11/2016 Duração: 20min

    This sermn was given on Christ the King Sunday. It was also the Sunday before Thanksgiving. I talk about what it means that Jesus is called Christ and what kind of king Jesus is. This should drive us to gratitude. 

  • Post-Election Sermon: Relationships in Disagreement

    16/11/2016 Duração: 26min

    This sermon was given the Sunday after the most divisive election that I have ever seen. I reflect on the words of Paul ot the church at Corinth, and his plan to help them with unity. I talk about the three words that my teacher Len Sweet calls the hardest words to get right in the world today--"I" "Love" "You"  The world needs the church to get these words right, but the world does not want the church, and I am worried the church is not ready to be needed.

  • The Future of Our Church

    10/11/2016 Duração: 22min

    In this sermon I talk about where I am personally this Fall and where we are as a church. I talk honestly about what we need to do and where the challenges are.  

  • The Book on the Shelf

    03/11/2016 Duração: 26min

    This is a sermon for Reformation Sunday and look at the history of the Bible. I talk about how the Bible was written, how it was preserved over time, and how it came to be written in English. I hope that you listen and gain an appreciation for how important the privilege of reading the Bible in your own language was to people that gave their lives to give you that privilege. Pick up the book sometime.

  • Old Wrestling Injuries

    19/10/2016 Duração: 22min

    This is a sermon about Jacob wrestling with God. I talk about how we wrestle with God and how sometimes God's blessings come with limps.

  • Render Unto Caesar: Seek the Welfare of the City

    26/09/2016 Duração: 27min

    This sermon is the final of a 4-week series I am doing on faith and politics. My goal is not to tell people what to think or who to vote for, but rather to address some of the underlying spiritual issues at play in our national and global politics. I want to help Christians learn how to think about politics. This sermon explores how Christianity is based on core convictions that we have to prayerfully translate into voting and policy decisions. I drew the diagram that is pictured here. You can read the sermon at: http://www.jordanrimmer.com/seekthewelfareofthecity/

  • Render Unto Caesar: The Politics of Jesus

    19/09/2016 Duração: 24min

    This sermon is the third of a 4-week series I am doing on faith and politics. My goal is not to tell people what to think or who to vote for, but rather to address some of the underlying spiritual issues at play in our national and global politics. I want to help Christians learn how to think about politics. This sermon explores the politics of the Bible and how the Bible should inform our politics and how Jesus should be our political example.

  • Render Unto Caesar: Some Trust in Chariots

    12/09/2016 Duração: 24min

    This sermon is the second of a 4 week series I am doing on faith and politics. My goal is not to tell people what to think or who to vote for, but rather to address some of the underlying spiritual issues at play in our national and global politics. I want to help Christians learn how to think about politics. This sermon was given on September 11, 2016. It was the 15 year anniversary of 9/11 attacks on the United States. I reflect on the feeling of fear that we have had since that day and the growing violence from guns in our country in the years since. How should Christians think about war and violence?

  • Render Unto Caesar: Two Kingdoms

    06/09/2016 Duração: 25min

    This sermon begins a 4 week sermon series I am doing on faith and politics. My goal is not to tell people what to think or who to vote for, but rather to address some of the underlying spiritual issues at play in our national and global politics. I want to help Christians learn how to think about politics. In this sermon, I look at the idea that, in the Bible, we are part of two kingdoms--the kingdom of this world and the kingdom of God (sometimes also called the kingdom of heaven). What does it mean that we live in these two kingdoms? How does the idea of two kingdoms jive with America's idea of the separation of church and state?

  • Lift Dedication Sermon

    31/08/2016 Duração: 09min

    This short sermon was recorded during an outdoor service. There is background noise and I am projecting my voice because we did not bring out a sound system. The occasion was the dedication of our vertical platform life (think small elevator). It was a pretty exciting day that we were not sure would ever come. The sermon was followed by the story of the lift, a dedication, a prayer for the lift and those who use it, and the hymn "Great is Thy Faithfulness." After the service, we had some fun and ate a great picnic lunch.

  • Book of the Twelve: Malachi

    31/08/2016 Duração: 22min

    With this sermon on Malachi we come to the end of the Minor Prophets. It was all summer, but I found them to be an amazing journey. These old books still had new things to say to us today. I guess people don't change that much over time.

  • Book of the Twelve: Zechariah

    31/08/2016 Duração: 26min

    Sermon on Zechariah and his compelling and challenging imagery.

  • Book of the Twelve: Haggai

    31/08/2016 Duração: 14min

    Sermon on Haggai. I actually didn't press record on Sunday so I recorded it in my basement at a later date.

  • Book of the Twelve: Zephaniah

    03/08/2016 Duração: 26min

    Sermon on the book of Zephaniah. This is a book that once again looks at the judgment of the Day of the Lord, but also has an amazing description of God's saving presence that will come to Jerusalem. We know this hope to be Jesus.

  • Book of the Twelve: Habakkuk

    28/07/2016 Duração: 21min

    This sermon is on the book of Habakkuk. Can you trust God? That is a difficult question. But the harder question is, can you trust God with the timing? You are not really trusting God if you are not trusting God with the timing.

  • Book of the Twelve: Nahum

    19/07/2016 Duração: 23min

      In this sermon I look at the book of Nahum by telling the history of God's relationship with the Assyrians.
