Black Boys on Mopeds - The Gospel According to Sinead, week 2

Black Boys on Mopeds - The Gospel According to Sinead, week 2

This sermon examines the song Black Boys on Mopeds, by Sinead O'Connor. It was her response to the British government's condemnations of the massacre in Tiananmen Square, pointing out that they were perpetrating the same sort of indiscriminate killing of unarmed people at home in England.

War - The Gospel According to Sinead, week 1

War - The Gospel According to Sinead, week 1

Who is Sinead O'Connor? If you only know her for one thing, it's probably her 1992 appearance on SNL. To all outward appearances, her brave and defiant performance derailed her career as a pop star. But to her, it re-railed her career, allowing her to continue being who and what she always was at heart - a seeker of truth and justice, and a prophetic voice calling out the powerful.

Fear is built into the human experience. Fear of heights, fire, even of the dark help to keep us safe in an unsafe world. But does Fear have the final word? Should it? Or is there a path forward where Fear informs our experience, but is not the ultimate influence?

How it All Works - HIAW, week 1

There are no straight rivers. Oak trees drop thousands upon thousands of acorns for every one that grows up into a tree. These, and many other examples from nature, show us a picture of a God who is less concerned with efficiency and efficacy, and more concerned with the process.

Oct 23, 202344:03
