Sunday’s Sermon with the Rev. Michael Mayor - Christ Episcopal Church of Puyallup

Today we hear the parable of the widow and the unjust judge. What does it mean to have faith and are we called to more than prayer? Explore the implications of being an agent for justice in the face of a power imbalance and Jesus' call to be a people of faith who embody that justice.

Sometimes life with God is really not that complicated. This morning we hear the story of Naaman, and the cure of his leprosy. How he had to overcome his pride and do nothing more than bathe in the river Jordan.

"If you have faith the size of a mustard seed you can say to this mulberry tree 'be uprooted and planted in the sea' and it will obey you." Come explore this word of comfort that embraces the truth that all things are possible with God.

Jesus' parable this morning confronts us with the sharp divide between the wealthy and the poor and all the assumptions that come with it. Explore with us in today's sermon the call to justice and the need to respect the dignity of every human being.

What does Jesus mean when he says "you cannot serve God and wealth"? In today's sermon we explore what consitutes wealth and our relationship to it.

Canon Carla Robinson joins us to share insight into Jesus' parable of the lost sheep and the lost coin. God still seeks us out, regardless of life's circumstances.

Does Jesus really want us to hate all that we love? This morning in the sermon we explore one of the hard sayings of Jesus and the call to non-attachment as a pathway to meaning, purpose, and joy.

Reflecting on the teaching of Jesus in Luke 14:1,7-14, we explore the practical implications of living into the Reign of God.

Is it enough to simply believe and worship? What is the cost of discipleship? This morning we reflect on the words of the prophet Isaiah as we wrestle with being a Christian in the world today.
