Good Shepherd Barrhaven Sermon StreamThe Last Shall Be FirstWhat happens when we don't think we get what's coming to us? It's easy to grumble in Christian life because we believe God is blessing others more than us. But what happens to our spiritual walk when we grumble? In this sermon, Fr. Stephen reflects on the danger of pride and considers why it might be wise to let go of our desire for God to be fair. We actually need Him to be generous.Scripture Passage: Matthew 20:1-16Preached on the 16th Sunday after Pentecost, the 20th of September, by Rev. Stephen Silverthorne

Good Shepherd Barrhaven Sermon StreamHope RebornMost Christians are used to hearing the term "born again", but how many of us think through what it means for us? How are we born again, and what does it look like to be born again? Fr. Stephen's sermon today confronts the challenge of rebirths which don't seem to take. We sometimes want rebirth, but don't end up with the lasting change the rebirth implies. Christ offers us a rebirth which is eternal, and which has effects in our lives today.Sermon Passage: John 3:1-17Preached on March 8, 2020, the 2nd Sunday in Lent...

Good Shepherd Barrhaven Sermon StreamVery Tempting!Temptation is part of human life. We know we should say no, but it's very tough. What do we do when we want to do something which seems fine, but God says no? In today's sermon, we see Jesus himself being tempted with things that aren't bad in themselves. Yet, he says no. Listen as Fr. Stephen explains how the core temptation isn't to do something bad, but instead to doubt God's love for us.Scripture Passages: Genesis 3:1-7; Psalm 32:6-7; Matthew 4:1-11Preached on the First Sunday in Lent, March 1st, 2020 by Rev...

Good Shepherd Barrhaven Sermon StreamLaying Down the LawWe all know there are rules to follow in life. Yet, we aren't always very good in following them. This can make Christian life seem impossible: we can't live up to what God asks of us. In this sermon, Fr. Stephen walks us through a very difficult passage with rules we cannot possibly keep. Jesus says these things to encourage us to seek the purpose of the law--not just to obey it but to embrace it as something good. The result isn't more obedient slaves, but more virtuous children.Scripture Passage: Matthew 5:21-37Preached...

Yet, Jesus shows us that his most faithful followers may actually be the ones you don't notice. In his sermon today, Fr. Stephen reveals how Jesus' disciples are called to be like salt and light. Neither of these draw attention to themselves, but instead help bring out the best in the world around them.Scripture Reference: Matthew 5:13-20Preached on the 5th Sunday after Epiphany, February 9, 2020 by Rev.

But so what? What does it tell us about Christian life? In today's sermon, Fr. Stephen explains how this event shows us the importance of our relationship with Jesus as a real person. It also shows how everyday people have important parts to play in God's...

Good Shepherd Barrhaven Sermon StreamJohn the HumbleHumility is challenging, and not just because we think we're perfect in every way. It requires us to ignore our desire for praise, and instead desire to do what is right and good. This is especially important in Christian life, where we are called to seek Christ's honour above our own. So, how do we overcome our natural aversion to humility? In this sermon, Fr. Stephen points to John the Baptist as an example of what humility looks like, and how it works in Christian life today.Scripture Reference: John 1:29-43Preached on the 2...

Good Shepherd Barrhaven Sermon StreamLoved and SentChristian life can sometimes confuse us. We hear that we are beloved daughters and sons of God, but we also hear that we are supposed to behave well. That means sometimes when we haven't behaved well, we can wonder if we really are loved. In today's sermon on Jesus' baptism, Fr. Stephen explains how this tells us something important about our own baptism. We are fully loved because we are fully part of God's family. Yet, just as a parent trains a child to grow into maturity, God's direction trains us to show the world what God is like...

Good Shepherd Barrhaven Sermon StreamJesus, Take the WheelEveryone today seems anxious and fearful. Yet, we live in a time of unprecedented prosperity, peace, and stability. Why don't we feel better, when there are so many things going right? In this sermon, Fr. Stephen suggests that a key reason is that we don't appreciate what the Epiphany story tells us. It tells us that even when bad actors take the stage, there is a Divine director who is in control. This Divine director brought us Jesus, and is the One we can trust to see us through to a bright future.Scripture Reference: Matthew 2:1...

Good Shepherd Barrhaven Sermon StreamSupporting CastMost of us at some time wish we got more credit for what we do. We see others getting praised, when we know we work just as hard as them. Sometimes, others get to shine as stars when we are left in supporting roles. Yet, the Bible often shows us that supporting characters are deeply important to the story of salvation. In this sermon, Fr. Stephen holds up St. Joseph as an example of the importance supporting characters play. His supportive role, behind the scenes, is what allows the main characters to shine and what allows the drama of...

Good Shepherd Barrhaven Sermon StreamYou Can't Always Get What You WantUnanswered prayers and unrealized hopes are some of the most difficult challenges to our faith. Sometimes, they can leave us feeling that God has lost interest in us, or perhaps doesn't love us very much. In today's sermon, Fr. Stephen challenges us to ask whether our disappointments come from God's inaction, or whether they come from us not looking where God is acting. He is at work, but we need the eyes to see it.Scripture Passages: Matthew 11:2-19; Isaiah 35Preached on the 3rd Sunday of Advent, December 15, 2009 by Rev.Stephen Silverthorne

Good Shepherd Barrhaven Sermon StreamKing of PainChristians call Jesus King. Yet, we also say he died a very undignified and shameful death. What kind of king is Jesus, who lets himself be captured, humiliated and tortured to death on a cross? This sermon argues that the way Jesus died isn't a sign of his weakness. Instead, it's a sign that he is a king who is willing to suffer any kind of shame and pain in order to complete his mission of grace.Scripture Passage: Luke 23:33-46Preached on Christ the King Sunday, November 24, 2019 by Rev.

Yet, Jesus himself neither married nor had children. Jesus' teaching tells us that marriage is important, but ultimately a means to an end. It serves to prepare us for the life of resurrection which is to come. Yet, in Christ it is not the only way we are prepared. Instead, the church should offer us a place where both the single and married find opportunities to serve and to grow more fully into maturityScripture Reference: Luke 20:27-40Preached...

Good Shepherd Barrhaven Sermon StreamFuture Blessings and Present ChallengesSaints are an important part of Christian life and practice, but controversies about them can keep us from appreciating this importance. They present us with a picture of what life fully lived for God looks like. They are ones who lived out Jesus' words in the beatitudes and in his command to love enemies. They were able to do so because they kept their eyes fixed on God's kingdom and believed that His promises of blessing would come true.Scripture Reference: Luke 6:20-36Preached on All Saints' Sunday, November 3, 2019 by Rev. Stephen Silverthorne

Good Shepherd Barrhaven Sermon StreamDon't Tickle Your EarsWe all prefer to hear what we want to hear. Fewer people still strive to hear what they need to hear, even if it's not what they want. In this sermon, Fr. Stephen speaks about the importance of providing avenues for hearing what God wants to say, even if it isn't what you wanted. Being challenged in godliness is what makes us grow more Christlike, so stay in places where that challenge is made.Scripture reference: 2 Timothy 3:10-4:5Preached on the 19th Sunday after Pentecost, October 20th, 2019, by Rev.

Good Shepherd Barrhaven Sermon StreamBetter Angels of Our NatureAngels, demons and the supernatural are often the subject of mockery in western civilization today. Often, even Christians feel embarrassed when these topics come up in the bible or in sermons. Yet, they come up very often. Not just in bible, but in the belief systems of many cultures today. This sermon challenges us to acknowledge that there may be more to the world than what our modern scientific worldview allows. Why should we consider the possibility that angels and the supernatural exist, and how can we embrace this possibility in a way which doesn't lead us into silly...

Good Shepherd Barrhaven Sermon StreamWhen Love Breaks Your HeartJesus tells us to love, but how do you love someone who breaks your heart? How do you love someone who continually frustrates you? Today's sermon tackles how to love people and institutions which disappoint and hurt us. Using insights from the prophet Jeremiah, Fr. Stephen reassures us that disappointment and sorrow are normal parts of human life. We must love people who cause us grief because every love causes grief. Yet, Jesus' grace is enough to help us bear this grief with the hope that God can lead us through.Scripture Reference: Jeremiah 8:18-9:1

This sermon addresses why harsh words are important for us to hear, and why God's judgment always leaves room for a solid hope.Scripture Passage: Jeremiah 4:11-28Preached on the 14th Sunday after Pentecost, the 15th of September, by Rev.

Good Shepherd Barrhaven Sermon StreamGive Me A BreakModern people have more labour-saving devices than we know what to do with. We have more leisure time than almost anyone in history. Yet, we always seem busy and over-worked. How can people with so much free time feel so burdened? This sermon helps address the problem of over-work by reflecting on the gift of Sabbath. Jesus reveals to us that we need rest in order to flourish as human beings. We also have a responsibility to help others flourish by giving them rest. Learn about the importance of weekly rest, and why making it a priority brings real...

2019-08-081h 30Good Shepherd Barrhaven Sermon StreamFirst Things FirstMoney has an important part in our lives. It's a great tool to help us achieve our goals. Yet, it has a nasty tendency to tell us that it is itself the goal we should work for. In today's sermon, Fr. Stephen reflects on Jesus' challenge about money and material things. Jesus doesn't tell everybody to go without work and savings. But he does tell us not to let them rule our lives. When we do, we are diminished as human beings and don't live up to God's hopes for us.Scripture Reference: Luke 12:13-21
2019-08-0421 minGood Shepherd Barrhaven Sermon StreamPraying RightFor many Christians, prayer is one of the hardest parts of faith. Yet, Jesus repeatedly tells us how important it is. How do we keep up a good prayer life, when it presents obstacles? In this sermon, Fr. Stephen reflects on what attitudes can make our prayer more meaningful and effective, as well as some practical tips on how to pray.Scripture reference: Luke 11:1-11Preached on the 7th Sunday after Pentecost, July 28, 2019 by Rev. Stephen SilverthorneSermon HighlightsPrayer can often be difficult for ChristiansWe seem not...
2019-07-2820 minGood Shepherd Barrhaven Sermon StreamSlacking for JesusWe live in a distracted age. There is always something more to do. For many of us, life can seem like an endless set of tasks. Sometimes, we get disappointed with Jesus because we don't think he's giving us enough help in getting the tasks done. Yet, the bible makes it clear that this isn't what Jesus came to do. Jesus invites us to follow his priorities, rather than inviting his help to fulfill our priorities. In today's sermon, Fr. Stephen reflects on the story of Mary & Martha from the Gospel of Luke. These two sisters are examples of...
2019-07-2122 minGood Shepherd Barrhaven Sermon StreamWon't You Be My Neighbour?We are all scared of evangelism. Few people seem to enjoy sharing their faith, even though Jesus tells us it's a priority for his disciples to do so. So how can we overcome our fear? What does it look like to share our faith? How can we avoid the cliches and manipulation that the word sometimes brings with it? In this sermon, Fr. Stephen shares how faith-sharing really boils down to being a good neighbour and loving as Jesus does. The specifics of our faith can start shining through only when we have shown genuine love for those we...
2019-07-0721 minGood Shepherd Barrhaven Sermon StreamA Transforming FireWe all long for vengeance sometimes. The desire to crush our enemies, and make them suffer for what they have done for us, is hard to overcome. Here, Jesus' disciples indulge in this desire to crush their enemies, but Jesus shows them a better way. The fire of the Holy Spirit comes to transform our enemies, not to crush them. This sermon encourages us to look for the redemption of those caught up in evil, and challenges us to be instruments of that transformation.Scripture references: 2 Kings 1:1-18; Luke 9:51-62Preached on the 3rd...

2019-06-251h 36Good Shepherd Barrhaven Sermon StreamPentecostPentecost is one of the most important festivals in the church year. Yet, the meaning of this important festival is sometimes lost on us. In this sermon, Fr. Stephen shows how Pentecost reveals that God's promises are trustworthy even when their fulfillment takes longer than we hope. It also shows us that God empowers us to do tasks we couldn't do on our own.Scripture reference: Acts 2:1-21Preached by the Rev. Stephen Silverthorne on June 9, 2019, Pentecost SundaySermon HighlightsPentecost shows us we are wrapped up in God's bigger plansThe...
2019-06-1322 minGood Shepherd Barrhaven Sermon StreamA Happy AbsenceAscension is a principal feast in the Anglican Church, celebrating Jesus' ascension into heaven. However, this can seem like an odd thing to celebrate. Why be happy at Jesus' absence? This sermon explores why Jesus' ascension is important, even if it causes real challenges for us.Scripture reference: Acts 1:1-11; Luke 24:44-53Preached by Rev. Stephen Silverthorne on the Sunday after Ascension, June 2, 2019Sermon HighlightsJesus' ascension is ascension into God's glorySymbolism of cloud, angels points to God's presenceJesus' absence makes our doubts understandableJesus' absence puts responsibility on us as...
