Justice

March 20, 2022 • Rev. Dr. Barnabas Sprinkle • Matthew 26:57–75, Matthew 27:1–8

We "play with fireworks" with no concept of the consequences. The world is on fire, and we blame others and sometimes God when we get burned. What does justice look like for this broken cosmos, this broken humanity? How can justice be done?

Not Forsaken

April 10, 2022 • Rev. Dr. Barnabas Sprinkle • Matthew 27:45–54

“My God, why have you forsaken me?” Have you ever felt that? The good news is that God has not forsaken us. God has never left us alone in whatever we are facing.

Praise

April 3, 2022 • Rev. Dr. Barnabas Sprinkle • Matthew 27:27–44

There is something in us that likes to mock. It is not enough to defeat our enemies; we want to humiliate them. We want to convince ourselves that our enemies are unworthy of respect, are somehow less than human. Have you ever fallen for it? Whom are you tempted to mock?

Choose

March 27, 2022 • Rev. Dr. Barnabas Sprinkle • Matthew 27:11–26

Both Barabbas and Jesus were revolutionaries. Barabbas wanted to change the world's power structure; Jesus wanted to change the world's power dynamics. The crowd had a choice. What do we choose?
