Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany Sermons
The church year begins in the dark, waiting. Advent teaches us to long for God's coming, Christmas announces that God has come near in Jesus, and Epiphany follows that light as it spreads to the nations, all the way to the mountaintop of the Transfiguration.
These are sermons I've written and preached for this season. You'll also find buttons to the commentary hubs for Matthew, Luke, and John, where the birth narratives live. I hope you find this resource helpful as you study, pray, and write for God's glory.
Advent Sermons
Four Sundays of waiting, watching, and preparing room for Christ: prophets, John the Baptist, Zechariah, Mary, and Joseph.
Christmas Sermons
The Word made flesh: the manger, the shepherds, the family tree, and God with us in the mess and the magnificent.
Epiphany and Transfiguration Sermons
The magi follow the star, Jesus steps into the Jordan, and the light of Christ goes out to all people, until the disciples glimpse his glory on the mountain just before Lent.
A reflective Advent sermon on Matthew 3:1–12 exploring repentance as the invitation to turn, plant new seeds, and cultivate a different harvest. Discover how John the Baptist’s call to “bear fruit” offers possibility, agency, and hope for real change during the Advent season.
