A sermon from Father Michael Novotny. Hebrews 9:24–28 . Live like you’ve been forgiven.
God is love. What does this mean? Christians confess that God is triune: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This week’s message on 1 John 4:7-21 explores the implications of the love that has eternally existed between these three persons. Join Fr. Michael Novotny as we grapple with how this truth relates to our lives today.
What is love? Christian love is different from the world’s love in that it is founded on the event of Jesus’ sacrificial death on the cross. This week’s message from Fr. Michael Novotny shows us that there is a direct correlation between our love of God and our love of fellow Christians. If we cannot love one another, we cannot be Christians.
What does Jesus mean when he tells us that he is the Good Shepherd? Unlike the false shepherd we read about in Ezekiel 34:1–10, Jesus’ claim to be the Good Shepherd reminds us of Psalm 23. This week’s message from Bishop David Bryan helps us understand that God made a promise to rescue his sheep and that Jesus is the fulfillment of that promise.
Luke the Evangelist records several important details in the 24th chapter of his Gospel, all of which testify to Christ’s bodily resurrection from the dead. St. Paul says that this is the pivotal doctrine of the Christian faith, going so far as to say that “if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins” (1 Cor. 15:17). This week’s message from Fr. Michael Novotny encourages us that we have many good reasons to believe in the resurrection and that this belief, inherited by the apostolic eyewitnesses, changes everything.
Alleluia! The Christ is Risen! He is Risen Indeed! Today marks the greatest feast day of the year. It is a celebration of the new life we have in Jesus Christ. This Easter message by Fr. Michael Novotny helps us understand the significance of the cosmic consequences of Christ’s victory over sin and death.
