The Night Shepherds Became Angels

Rev. Paul J. Miller ·

2025/12/23

God could have chosen any person or persons on the planet to announce the coming of Christ into our world. He didn't choose the rich, the powerful, the advantaged, or the best educated. He chose humble shepherds. That night began as just like any another night; outside with the sheep doing what had done for countless generations. By morning, the lives of these shepherds would never be the same; and nor would the lives of all humanity.....

Chosen to Carry Christ

Rev. Paul J. Miller ·

2025/12/09

The mother of Jesus didn’t ask for or seek out this incredible blessing. She was chosen by God for this, and she willingly submitted to His will. This surely upended whatever plans and dreams she had for her own life. It also had to be a great burden as she tried to explain her pregnancy to her own family and friends. (even Jospeh didn’t believe her, at first) The call of God in our lives is always good, but it’s never easy. We will always get some level of rejection or trial for carrying Christ

The god of Othering

Rev. Paul J. Miller ·

2025/11/26

The vision of the judgement seat of God taught by Jesus in Matthew 25 reveals the need of acting upon what we claim to believe in. Faith that fails to transcend from thought to action is not faith at all. But when both are present, we can experience "life", eternal life. Eternity is both now and forever.

The Idol of Convenience

Rev. Paul J. Miller ·

2025/11/18

Our tech-obsessed world wants everything as quickly and as easily as possible. Make it more convenient and it will sell. But there are no short-cuts to what matters most. The narrow path is the way to life - true life, the best life. That path always includes risk, sacrifice, and time. Convenience itself isn't wrong, but the way to life is not convenient.

The god of Information

Rev. Paul J. Miller ·

2025/11/11

Information is more available than ever before. But what do we do with it? What is it doing to us? How do we discern what is good and what is true? Let's look to the scriptures and learn from the measureless God how best to discern our way through endless information.

The god of Distraction

Rev. Paul J. Miller ·

2025/11/04

Distractions surround and attack us daily. Multiple forms of media thrust in our faces and glued to our fingertips. Jesus warned us about a soil condition of the heart where thorns choke out what God is trying to grow through us. His desire is that we thrive like the tree by the water in Psalm 1.

Afraid of How Jesus Will Come Back?

Rev. Paul J. Miller ·

2025/10/28

This sermon is a chapter from my upcoming book about fear. How we interpret and explain the mysterious apocalyptic books and chapters of the Bible matters. It especially matters when fear-filled predictions about the return of Christ are thrust upon the masses. Fear and love are opposites. Jesus came to us to demonstrate the greatness and power of love over fear. Do we hear about God's love from the fear-filled "end times" prophetic industry? Let's get focused on being His witnesses, not just

The Church - A People of Sincere Love

Rev. Paul J. Miller ·

2025/10/24

"Love must be sincere" This vital directive can be easily missed among the multitude of good, sound, practical advice found in the 12th chapter of Paul's letter to the church in Rome. But a case could be made that those 4 words are central to all else that is written in these 21 verses. Romans 12 is about transformation, gifts from the Spirit, unity in the body, how we should be engaging and responding to our world, and leaving vengeance in the hands of God. Loving with sincerity is vital every one

The Holy Spirit Proves the World to be Wrong

Rev. Paul J. Miller ·

2025/10/15

Just before Jesus was arrested and went to the cross, He promised His disciples that the "Advocate" (comforter, helper, counselor) would come. A big part of what the Spirit did (and still does) is to "prove the world wrong" about sin, about righteousness, and about judgement. (see John 16:8-11)

Rev. Paul J. Miller - Sermon Notes – October 5, 2025“Jesus: We can all find renewed life in Him” - Romans 8:1-11 “Jesus Christ, the incarnate Son of God, through his virgin birth, sinless life, sacrificial death on the Cross, and glorious resurrection and ascension, graciously offers new life to all who receive him by faith.” – Evangelical Congregational Church This statement contains a story. THE story. If we believe the story, what does it mean for us? I AM WRETCHED “What a wretched man I am!”

Our Shared Faith - Sin - We Share Our Broken Condition

Rev. Paul J. Miller ·

2025/09/30

Sin separates us from God. But in what sense are we separated? Is it positional or relational? No matter how far we fall and fail, God's love follows us there, right into the depths of our brokenness. That's what a loving father does.

Image of God - Our True Identity

Rev. Paul J. Miller ·

2025/09/24

Walk with me through the numerous scriptures that teach the importance of "image". Creating our own does work out so well. Accepting that we bear the image of the Creator is the key to embracing your true identity.

Waiting on the Lord - Isaiah 40

Rev. Paul J. Miller ·

2025/09/16

Waiting on the Lord means trusting in Him like a lamb trusts it's shepherd. Do you trust Jesus to hold you close?

Growing While You Wait

Rev. Paul J. Miller ·

2025/09/10

Lamentations 3:1-33God is faithful to us, he is GREATly faithful. Beleiving that that is true is most challenging during difficult times. Jeremiah witnessed devastating loss and national tragedy. As horrific as those days were for him, somehow, he was still able to declare to God, "great is thy faithfulness".
