Preface for Pastors and Parents For Palm Sunday in Year B, I bring you a children’s sermon on Mark 11:1-11. That’s one of four options offered to churches in the Revised Common Lectionary, as I detailed in my Monday Meditation on this passage back in 2021. I always prefer focusing on Palm Sunday, rather than […]
A Children’s Sermon on John 2:13-22 — Lent 3
Preface for Pastors and Parents For the third Sunday of Lent I bring you a children’s sermon on John 2:13-22. As I noted in my Monday meditation on this text, I think its odd for the lectionary to jump to John for the story of Jesus cleansing the temple. Year B is focused on Mark, and […]

A Children’s Sermon on Mark 1:4-11 — The Baptism of Christ
Preface for Parents and Pastors This Sunday is “The Baptism of the Lord,” the first Sunday after Epiphany, so I bring you a children’s sermon on Mark 1:4-11. Some churches will be celebrating Epiphany, since that’s the bigger holy day, technically, and it didn’t fall on a Sunday. If that’s true for you, you can […]
