Here’s my children’s sermon on John 12:1-8, “The Anointing at Bethany.” I wrote it for the fifth Sunday on Lent, but it might work quite well as a Thanksgiving children’s sermon. (You can find my regular Monday Meditation on the same text here.) The Lectionary is mostly in Luke for Year C, but for the […]
A Children’s Sermon on Luke 15:11-31 — The Prodigal Son
For the 4th Sunday in Lent I bring you a children’s sermon on Luke 15:11-31. (You can find my regular “Monday Meditation” on this text here.)

A Children’s Sermon on Luke 13:1-9
We are coming up to the third Sunday of Lent, so I bring you a children’s sermon on Luke 13:1-9. (You can find my regular Monday Meditation on the same text here.) Like last week, this passage has two very different parts. The first half is a snarky conversation between Jesus and some folks who […]

This Sunday is the first Sunday of Lent, so I bring you a children’s sermon on Luke 4:1-13, the temptation of Christ. I love the story, and hope you’ll read my Monday Meditation on it here from a while back. It’s one of those texts where the details contradict every point I think I recollect […]
