“The Battle Against Bullies”
Rev. Oden R. Warman
David and Jesus both rely on God for their strength in the stories we share today. Both faced overwhelming odds with confidence. The Old Testament lesson portrays God’s power in physical might and the gospel offers Jesus who, without weapons, revealed God’s power. Whenever God’s people are battered and bruised God calls upon champions to overcome resistance to the plan of God. God’s presence in our lives gives us the courage to face danger and overcome our fears.

“Have You Heard?”
Rev. Oden R. Warman
God’s power is seen beautifully in creation, as Isaiah points out. This power is a comfort God offers to us, reminding us of God’s ability to give power to us in our weakness and healing to us in our illness. This mighty power is most miraculously seen in Christ’s acts of healing and casting out spirits.

“Amazing Authority”
Rev. Oden R. Warman
In Deuteronomy, the people are so frightened by God’s power they seek guidance through intermediaries, prophets, so that they will not come in direct contact with the holy and die. The fullness of God again appears to the people in Christ, who heals and teaches with authority. Jesus continues to reveal his divine connection to his Father through his amazing authority.

“Who, me, Lord?”
Rev. Oden R. Warman
There is an urgency to today's texts — a sense that time is short and important things are happening. Jonah prophesies to the Ninevites that unless they change they shall meet their doom in forty days. Jesus proclaims that the time is fulfilled, for the kingdom of God has come near. In these dramatic times we are called to faithful action. It matters that we can experience God's grace and find meaning in life by following Christ.

"It's Time to See the Light"
Rev. Oden R. Warman
During the Epiphany season, the manifestation of the Christ unfolds. The Magi follow the star to the Christ Child, Jesus is baptized and receives affirmation of his messiahship, he proclaims the gospel, is revealed through word and sign and, finally, in the Transfiguration, glows with visible glory. Revelation is not instantaneous but progressive. That, too, is how we have come to know Christ, for the most part — not a sudden blinding light, but a light coming on here and there, as the darkness retreats, transformed.

"New Life for the New Year"
Rev. Oden R. Warman
We have celebrated the good news of God’s presence in our worldinJesus Christ. As we face the new year we commit ourselves to living as disciples of Jesus. We are part of a covenant community, a vowed community, a community guided by God’s promises. We have been given the hope of new life in this new year.
