children's sermon on Luke 2:1-20

This children’s sermon on Luke 2:1-20 was going to come out in time for people to use it on Christmas Eve or Christmas morning. Well, it’s a busy season. I worked on it in bits and pieces, but the days slipped past before I had time to give it a polish and send it out. […]

A Children’s Sermon on Mark 12:28-34–Living God’s Way

October 27, 2021 by Gary Neal Hansen 2 Comments

children's sermon on Mark 12:28-34

Photo of LOVE statue, NYC (Public Domain) My children’s sermon on Mark 12:28-34 brings us into some strange lectionary territory. “Mark 12?” you ask. “Last week we were on Mark 10!
