The Tower of Babel


(Sermon preached July 16, 2023) The story of the tower of Babel is found in Genesis 11:1-9.  This sermon is the third in a series titled the Kindom of God: Among Us, Within Us ( a series created for congregations of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in anticipation of the General Assembly of the church held in Louisville, July 29 – August 1.)  When we compare the story of the tower of Babel to the story of Pentecost we see that there are two kinds of unity.  Unity based on conformity and uniformity and unity rooted in purpose; unity with diversity.  Note which one God prefers.

The Kindom of God


(Sermon preached July 2, 2023) This sermon is the first in a series titled, “The Kindom of God: Among Us, Within Us,” which is the theme of the 2023 General Assembly of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ).  In Luke 17:20-21, Jesus says, “The Kingdom of God is Among us.” Other translations say, “within us,” and “in your midst.” The word “kindom” is not a replacement for the word “kingdom,” but rather an expression of the kinship that is at the heart of God’s kingdom.
