Rev. Brandon Nonnemaker, Ed.D.

This sermon explores what it means to live a life of embodied faith. Jacob, Paul, and the widow reveal that faith is not an abstract belief but a lived, physical practice of showing up—again and again—even when it hurts. It invites the listener to see their own weary, wondrous body as sacred ground where God continues to dwell.

Rev. Stuart Higginbotham, DMin

When we say that our lives are our practice, we affirm that each moment offers us an opportunity to practice gratitude. Rather than seeing our spiritual practice only as a way to fix a problem or achieve a desired result, we learn from Jesus how our entire lives can be transformed. In this way, we are truly made whole.

Rev. Brandon Nonnemaker, Ed.D.

In a world that often feels chaotic and uncertain, Habakkuk, Jesus, and Paul teach us what it means to live faithfully. Drawing on the Hebrew concept of emunah, the Greek pistis, and Howard Thurman’s call "to center down,” this sermon explores how faith is steadiness in the midst of life’s storms. Through small acts of love and trust, even the tiniest seed of faith can move what seems immovable.
