I’m a lectionary preacher, but that doesn’t mean I preach the same text every three years. The sermon getting the most hits this week for the Second Sunday in Easter comes from a series I preached on 1 John back in 2015. You can find “Living in the Light” here.
If you are more interested in a sermon from the Gospel of John for this Sunday, here’s the link to “Without A Doubt” originally from 2014, but an updated (and better, in my humble opinion) version of that same message for 2017 is “So You Might Believe”.
This year, I will be preaching a series on the readings from Acts, which replace the Old Testament readings during Eastertide. I developed this series specifically for interim ministry, to help churches in transition “get their acts together” as they move forward into a new season. I will be updating each sermon in the week before I preach it, so the links below will get you to the most recent version of each message.
Whichever lectionary strand you choose, I hope God’s Word is illuminated by what you read here, and your own walk with Jesus is enriched. Blessings on your Eastertide!
