Sermons

I need a place to put my sermons. 

I've been preaching several times per year since my college days in the mid-1990s.  I've got a few manuscripts laying around, and some disks here and there with a few sermons.  But I've lost many of my earliest sermons - a mixed blessing, for sure - but any complete sermons that I can find and all future sermons will be posted here (I say complete sermons because I have found many not-quite-finished sermons that I probably finished by hand or on another computer!).  Mind you, I am posting all of my available sermons here - whether they were good or not!  Reader beware!

This page is a work in progress.  Sermons to be posted and linked below as I find them, as I write them, as I preach them.  Eventually I might fix all the formatting (copying from Word documents and pasting to html can get pretty ugly), and index the sermons according to season, lectionary day, topics, etc..  But for starters, all I want to do is get my sermons up . . .

Sermons are listed according to date.  I generally do not give titles to my sermons - I'm not really a fan of such a practice - but I have given titles to these sermons so that this list isn't simply an index of dates.
