In the third part of my introduction to Christianity and Christian Universalism, I look at the bible, its structure, its history, and its importance to us today as Christian Universalism. I discuss issues around biblical literalism, biblical inerrancy, and how we should read the bible to best understand it in light of Jesus's teachings.

...In the second part of my introduction to Christianity and Christian Universalism, I look at the life and death of Jesus Christ and discuss the political and religious environment in which he lived. The goal is for us to better understand who Jesus was, why he was important to the people of Judea during his lifetime, and why he continues to be the central figure in Christianity today.
In the first part of my introduction to Christianity and Christian Universalism, I look at the reasons that people search for a religious home and the reasons why I believe people come to Christianity and Christian Universalism. If nobody will be punished for all eternity for their mistakes, as Christian Universalists believe, then why even be Christian?

Baptism is a cornerstone of the Christian faith and is demonstrated by both Jesus and the apostles in the scriptures. Many Christians believe that those who are not baptized will not go to heaven. Others believe that the unbaptized may still enter heaven if they are baptized after death. As a community who believes that all will be eventually reconciled with God, how do Christian Universalists understand the meaning and purpose of ...
In this sermon, Rev. Andrew talks about what motivates us to be Christians, given our belief in universal salvation. When we don't fear eternal punishment in hell, why should we follow the teachings of Jesus?
This sermon was originally recorded on June 25th, 2023.

In this sermon we look at Romans 2:1-16 in which Paul discusses the universality of God's judgement and the fact that we will all be repaid for our actions in this life. Rev. Andrew talks about our need for a just universe and a just God and how the concept of God's justice and judgement is often misunderstood by those who are new to Christian Universalism.

In this week's sermon we look at he reading in Acts that discusses Saul's persecution of the early Christians and his conversion to Christianity after seeing a vision of Jesus Christ. What does it mean to convert to Christianity and how do we share that experience with others when it is so deeply personal?

In this week's sermon we look at the stories of the risen Christ that we find in the gospel, especially his interactions with the apostle Thomas. In the person of Thomas we can often see ourselves, doubtful of the stories we've heard and always questioning what we haven't seen with our own eyes. If we doubt, does that mean we don't have faith? How can we hear the story of the risen Christ and understand it in a ...

In this Good Friday sermon we examine the story of the Crucifixion of Jesus and how John's version of the story has led to problematic interpretations of the events by Christians over the years. As Christian Universalists, how can we understand Christ's crucifixion as an event that proved God's victory over sin and death instead of a sacrifice to an angry God?

Palm Sunday celebrates the entry of Jesus into Jerusalem for Passover and the procession that occurred when that happened. The original hearers of this story would have understood this procession differently than many modern hearers because they would have been familiar with the processions of those in power during the Roman Empire. In this week's sermon we look at this context and the ways that Jesus subverts people's ex...
In this week's sermon we look at the story of Jesus's trial before Pontius Pilate as it is described in John's Gospel. What did it mean when Pilate called Jesus the King of the Jews? How can we read this text in a way that does not breed antisemitism in our community? What was the context of the author and how did that affect the way the story was told? These are the sort of questions that we will attempt to address.

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
