Join us today as The Rev. Simone Lilith Drinkwater helps us pose a question: Have you ever wondered about those 'behind the scenes' moments in the Bible? Well, we're diving into one of them today! This sermon unpacks why Jesus sent out 70 if his followers before heading to Jerusalem. It's not just ancient history; it's a powerful lesson for us about preparing for our own callings, trusting in who we are in Christ, and how we can truly welcome everyone into the family. Come discover the heart behind the mission!

Join us on this Third Sunday after Pentecost as The Rev. Paul Hanneman humorously tackles sermon length expectations at St. Michaels before diving into a powerful message about Jesus's "Cranky" moments and the challenging call to discipleship. Discover what it truly means to follow Christ by shedding baggage and embracing a Love for All, even those we find difficult. Paul then explores the "fruit of the spirit" and encourages listeners to "go deeper, go farther" into their lives to find God's work within them, culminating in a personal reflection on loving the unlovable. It's a sermon that reminds us, "All you need is Love".
