Human wisdom and logical, thinking have many advantages. However, there are things in this world that transcend our wisdom and understanding. Some things can only be understood from God’s perspective. Join Fr. Charles as he explains.

There are lots of mixed messages in the world today, which can leave us feeling lost and alone in the wilderness of life. But, the truth is we are not alone in the wilderness. Jesus is in the wilderness with us. Listen in as Fr. Chris explains.

Christ charged his church to carry out the Great Commission. But how can we possibly accomplish such a lofty goal? Join Fr. Charles as he connects the lessons of the transfiguration with accomplishing all Christ has commanded.

Christ has charged his church to enter the world and cast out evil. Many of our greatest heroes have sacrificed their lives and endured much pain and suffering, carrying out the charge of our Lord. But what about the Christian who doesn't lose everything by following Jesus? What about Christians who love the Lord wholeheartedly but never become martyrs? Can a Christian live a quiet, pious life and still carry out the charge of Jesus? Join Fr. Charles as he shares his perspective.

When we’re tempted to think that God only uses pristine people to accomplish his purposes, look again. God uses very ordinary, even broken people to accomplish extraordinary and beautiful things. Listen in as Fr. Chris talks about what the community of disciples really looks like.

"Calling" is an essential Biblical idea and is often discussed among Christians. But many Christians have defined "calling" much too narrowly. Because "calling" is more than the profession God has given you. Join Fr. Charles as he explains why.

Listen in as Fr. Chris begins a sermon series on discipleship that he and Fr. Charles will preach through the Season of Epiphany. Today’s message shows how the baptism of Jesus is a critical part of his - and our - disciple-making ministry.

The depth and beauty of the Incarnation are explored by Father Charles. Join in as he unpacks some foundational insights.

In Fr. Charles' sermon, this last Sunday of Advent, he contrasts the response to the Angel Gabriel's visit to Zechariah and Mary. Listen as he explains that even though both are given similar news, each will hesitate in accepting it but for different reasons.

What Child Is This? All of us are born. But, only one birth has changed how we count time and challenged us to ponder the paradox of how God became human. Listen in as Fr. Chris talks about the miracle and the mystery of Jesus’ birth.

In a world filled with suffering and pain, we are all looking, even longing for something. That something… is joy. Listen in as Fr. Chris talks about the source of our joy, who is Jesus, and how we can attain to joy.

On the third Sunday in Advent, also known as Gaudete Sunday, we traditionally have our 'Advent Lessons and Carols' service. In Fr. Charles' sermon, he explains the meaning behind the candles we light during the Advent season. "Gaudete in Domino semper" ... "Rejoice in the Lord always."
