#107. October 25 - Rev. Shane Page Oct 25, 2020

Show notes

This Sunday we conclude our series on Jesus’s Sermon on the Mount, reflecting on his concluding words in the 7th chapter (Matthew 7:21-29). Jesus envisions two types of hearers: the foolish who disregard his words and the wise who stake their lives on them. Jesus ends his great sermon with a choice. It belongs to us to respond.

Shane, Kevin, and Karen give some updates on what has been happening at DUMC over the last two weeks and then dig into the topic of evidence that God exists.

#105. October 18 - Rev. Shane Page Oct 18, 2020

Show notes

This Sunday in our reflections of Jesus's Sermon on the Mount we will spend time pondering the words closing out chapter 6 of Matthew's gospel: "Do not worry about your life, what you will eat or wear...but seek first the kingdom of God and all these things will be added to you." Within the context of the sermon, Jesus, I think, identifies what is often the source or contributor of many of our material concerns. Let's think about it this week.

#104. October 11 - Rev. Shane Page Oct 11, 2020

Show notes

This Sunday we come to the next portion of Jesus’s sermon on the mount in which he instructs his disciples to avoid parading their good works or their generosity before the public gaze. Instead his disciples should give in secret, pray in secret, and practice their piety in secret. Why? This Sunday let’s contemplate our Lord’s instructions and understand how his is a call to freedom.

#103. Page-Turner Episode 22/October 7 Oct 07, 2020

Show notes

Shane, Kevin, and Karen discuss the theological virtue, hope. Hope is more than just wishful thinking and being optimistic. Watch/listen to this week's episode to learn why hope is important.

#102. October 4 - Rev. Shane Page Oct 04, 2020

Show notes

This Sunday we continue our reflections on passages within Jesus’s sermon on the mount. This Sunday we will hear the Lord say, in my paraphrase, “You’ve heard it said ‘you shall not commit adultery,’ but I say to you that if you have lust for another you have committed adultery in your heart.” In a sex-obsessed, lust-laden culture like ours, our Lord’s words strike like a thunderbolt. Parents of younger children, please know my sermon this Sunday will broach very mature matters pertaining to sex and sexuality. I strongly advise your discretion.

#101. Page-Turner Episode 21/September 30 Oct 01, 2020

Show notes

Shane, Kevin, and Karen discuss the emotion of anger. What the Bible tells us about it and how we can be better Christians at managing it.

#100. September 27 - Rev. Shane Page Sep 27, 2020

Show notes

This Sunday our reflections on portions of Jesus’s Sermon on the Mount continues. We will spend time considering perhaps his most radical teaching, a teaching so singular its shockwaves reverberate to this day. Love your enemies. Where does Christianity depart from almost every other religious tradition? Precisely here.
