A Life Animated by Faith, Hope and Love
On September 11 we remember lives and loves lost. This Sunday we analyze and ask ourselves, "What animates our lives? Is it love? Is it faith? Is it love?" Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the II was examplary in showing us a life animated by her Faith in Jesus Christ and her love for God and her people. In her Chrismas address of 2011 she said, "Although we are capable of great acts of kindness, history teaches us that we sometimes need saving from ourselves, from our recklessness or our greed. God sent into the world a unique person, neither a philosopher nor a general, important though they are. But a savior with the power to forgive."

Unplug and Reconnect
Sermon preached on Sunday 04 September, 2022 by Canon Peter Tepper at the Cathedral Church of St Luke.
Ever tried to unplug from something or get away from a problem. The Psalmist speaks to us about God’s omnipresence. God’s presence is inescapable, overwhelming, but above all else comforting and awe-inspiring.
Where is the Disconnect?
In our series on divine connection, Canon Josh Bales speaks to us about the nature of connecting our worship to our work. "Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise—the fruit of lips that openly profess his name." The writer of Hebrews challenges us to make our worship, what comes off our lips, match our work, that which we offer to God and the world.
Sermon preached 28 August, 2022 at the Cathedral Church of St Luke by Canon Josh Bales.
Respect for the Power of the Unseen
We rarely miss electricity until it is gone. We rarely respect the power of electricity until we interact with it. So it is with the unseen power of God, we need it on a daily basis.

God's Refrigerator Art
Hebrews 11 speaks of a great cloud of witnesses who lived the life of faith and are now up there, cheering us on. You and I may buckle under the weight of thinking have to be perfect. God asks us to look at a look at a couple of the lives. It is in the lives of flawed saints like Gideon and Samson that we find the forgiving Savior, Jesus, who prays "Father forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing."
