Sermons

Seekers recognizes that any member of the community may be called upon by God to give us the Word, and thus we have an open pulpit with a different preacher each week. Sermons preached at Seekers, as well as sermons preached by Seekers at other churches or events, are posted here, beginning with the most recent.

Feel free to use what is helpful from these sermons. We only ask that when substantial portions are abstracted or used in a written work, please credit Seekers Church and the author, and cite the URL.

Diane Willkens: Shoes

September 15, 1996

When I was 15, my family moved to a much larger town. It was a very lonely time for me. Shortly after, I had several chances to play golf with a friend of my parents. He found the time to talk to me and pay special attention to me. I once asked him why he chose me. He said it was because I was the pick of the litter. Well, with five sisters in my family, it was the first time anyone had singled me out as special.

 

Marjory Zoet Bankson: Prophetic Imagination in El Salvador

September 01, 1996

When we were settled with coffee and juice in the outdoor patio that was our dining room, Dr. Vicky Guzman apologized for being late. “I didn’t sleep much last night,” she said, “because at midnight, I got a phone call — a death threat. Anonymous, of course.”

 

Murial S. Lipp: Faith

August 11, 1996

The subject this morning is faith. This is a hard subject to define. Its meaning, like when you try to pick up wet noodles, keeps getting away from you. But like love, you know it when you see it.
