READ THE SERMON

October 8, 2023 | 19th Sunday after Pentecost

Rev. Tim Mitchell

“WHY”

Do you sometimes ask the question: Why do people do the things they do?
Here’s a better question. Have you ever asked why you do some of the things you do?
I can’t help but wonder that there were some Scribes and Pharisees whom Jesus talked about in the reading that stopped and asked themselves, “Why do we wear such broad Phylacteries, and Why do we always have to be the first?”
One such Pharisee was Nicodemus, who began questioning and found his way at the feet of Jesus; for you see, using the question of why at the right place and time may help us uncover our true motivations.

“Throughout the week, there are many worldly things pulling me away from my commitment to God.  I come to church on Sunday at Westminster to reconnect and renew my relationship with Him.  Part of my worship is to ask him for forgiveness for my lack of faithfulness.  I leave, reminded that he loves me, forgives me, and walks beside me every day.  What a profound blessing that is!”
