To Glorify Jesus Christ as a Community of Disciples on Mission

Saved to be Loved, and Sent

In this sermon from the 3rd Sunday after Pentecost, 2026, Rev. Ben preaches on knowing who we are as the church. Drawing from Exodus 19:1-8 and Matthew 9:35-10:15 in the lectionary, he shows how we, the people of God, are saved in order to be loved, and we are saved in order to be sent. The church is meant to be an embassy, an outpost of the Kingdom of God here on earth, and we are Christ’s ambassadors.
