Jesus before Pilate

These are a series of three sermons on Matthew 27:11-26. The first concerns the Father's exoneration of Jesus; you can link to it here. The second explores the lack of Pilate's resolve; you can link to it here. The third looks at the blindness and brashness of the mob; link to it here.

Blood Money

Here is the link to my sermon on Matthew 27:6-10. This was preached back in July (on the 10th). I know I am way behind in posting these things but it has been a full Fall this year.

Judas in the Court of Conscience

So, here is the next sermon in the series. It's on Matthew 27:1-5, and was preached the first Sunday in July. By the way, I never have titles for my sermons, so it's a hit and miss exercise to add titles to them for posting, especially when they were preached a couple months back.

Sermon on Peter's Denials

Okay, after a couple months thinking about how to do this cheaply, I think I have got it.
I'm going to start posting some of the morning sermons here. The first is on Matthew 26:69-75. I preached it June 26, 2011. The text is on Peter's denial. I think I'll post one or two a week till I get caught up.
Please note, we do have an full evening service here in Heidelberg with preaching but I am not going to record those. Sunday is a technology light day for me and that little recorder drives me crazy as it is.

A Low-Church/Reformed Defense of the term Sanctuary

What should we call the building we, as the church, worship in? Amongst Protestants there are generally two words that come to mind: auditorium and sanctuary (this excludes the more traditional language of the Church of England because her vocabulary is drawn from the Medieval church). Sanctuary is more common today, but auditorium has a venerable history and much theologically to commend it.
