Love God, love people, and change the world. We believe the life and lessons of Jesus aren’t just good advice, but are Good News for us here and now. As a church, we are all about following Jesus and know there’s no end to that journey—we’re more about becoming than arriving. We are committed to becoming a multi-generational, multi-ethnic, multiplying movement of Christ followers, equipping and empowering our kids and students to not only be the church of tomorrow, but the church of today.

Superheroes are now a staple of movie entertainment, and continue to be popular because they take action to overcome injustice. We forget sometimes that God empowers us to be heroes as well, through honestly facing up to where we have become comfortable with injustice. How do we grow out of condemning others, and instead start asking where we need to change? Where do we find courage to act for the benefit of others? This sermon addresses these challenges and encourages us to grow into the kind of people who bring justice wherever we are.
Scripture references: Luke 13:1-9; 1 Corinthians 10:1-13
Preached on the Third Sunday in Lent, March 24, 2019 by Ed Montano
Sermon Highlights
- Oscar Romero is a great example of Christian faith
- He is an example of speaking truth to the powerful
- We sometimes ignore injustice because of dual loyalties
- Our first loyalty is to Christ, not to the powerful of our world
- Christ frees us from the idols of our age
- Christ also challenges us to look at our own lives
- Rather than blaming others, what are we doing?
- We should view the world through God's eyes
- This view should colour our approach to personal and public life
