    • Bridging the Divide: A Gospel of Generosity
      Sep 28 2025

      In this powerful and thought-provoking sermon, Father Geoff reflects on the parable of the rich man and Lazarus—an urgent call to recognize and respond to the divides that exist in our world: between abundance and need, comfort and compassion, blindness and grace.


      Rooted in Luke 16 and 1 Timothy, this message reminds us that the love of money, not money itself, leads us away from God and our neighbor. Through stories both biblical and personal, we’re invited to see the ways we may be walking past modern-day Lazaruses—and to respond with mercy, generosity, and love.


      You’ll also hear about a concrete act of love our parish is undertaking: partnering with City on a Hill to provide meals for children in Milwaukee. This is the Gospel in action—bridging the divide with Christlike care.

    • The Currency of Love
      Sep 22 2025

      In one of the most perplexing parables Jesus ever told, a dishonest manager gets praised for his shrewdness—and we’re left wondering, who are we in this story?


      This week, Father Geoff walks us through the tangled mess of money, judgment, redemption, and the things that possess us. From personal memories to cultural examples, from Supertramp to Gollum, this sermon uncovers the deeper question at the heart of Luke 16: What truly owns us?


      Through it all, we are pointed not toward wealth or judgment—but toward grace. The kind that forgives debts, redeems mistakes, and calls us into the one economy that never fails: the economy of God’s love.


      Let go of what owns you. Embrace what frees you.

    • Saul or Paul: Choosing Peace in a Time of Violence
      Sep 14 2025

      On this Sunday after a week of national mourning and deep division, Father Geoff challenges us with a question that’s both ancient and urgent: will we wear the heart of Saul, or the heart of Paul?


      Preaching on the Parable of the Lost Sheep and reflecting on the tragic political assassination of Charlie Kirk, this sermon does not take sides—it takes the side of Christ. With wisdom, conviction, and compassion, Father Geoff calls us to become instruments of peace, echoing the values of the prayer attributed to St. Francis: where there is hatred, let us sow love; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light.


      What does it mean to see the face of God in someone we disagree with? How do we resist the casual cruelty of modern discourse and reclaim a spirit of holy dialogue? In a world soaked with noise, cynicism, and anger, this is a timely invitation to choose the way of mercy, humility, and transformation.


      Whether you are seeking hope, healing, or simply a reason to believe in better, this sermon reminds us that Christ still seeks the lost—and still calls us to be found.
