Even the Blind Man Could See sermon from Mark 10:46-52
In my final sermon at the Lord’s Church of Waco for the Young Adult Ministry, I start off by naming that sometimes, there are things happening that we are not aware of. I recall my first conversation with the Senior Pastor who invited me to come so he could share with me about his ministry back in Feb 2025 (see pic below!). It takes a lot of hands, it takes a lot of prayers, it takes for God to…
Prayer For the Chosen sermon from Ephesians 1:15-23
Life After the Cross sermon from Acts 2:42-47
Ordination of Sejana part 2
Even though I knew one of my invited guest speakers had already arrived the day before by train from Oklahoma City to speak at my ordination service, I still began to get discouraged. I received message after message of cancellation leading up to Sunday evening’s service due to bad weather, gas prices being high, and busyness from other (important) obligations. I began to wonder, is anyone going…
Ordination of Sejana
My home church is Impact Temple Church in Temple, Texas. We invite you to witness and celebrate with us my ordination to the work of gospel ministry and chaplaincy the Sunday after Easter. You can check back here to this post as I’ll update it later when the recording is ready to be shared for those who weren’t able to make it. I want to remember and to share this significant milestone in my…
God’s Response versus Man’s Response sermon from Mark and Luke
Take a closer look at how Jesus responded to the actions and tensions unfolding around Him. His use of power stands in stark contrast to the way people — even God‑followers — often react. What does His response to the violence and turmoil of His day, reveal about our own, in this day? Listen in and see whether an invitation emerges to re‑examine how we respond in our everyday lives as followers…
What are you doing? Come with me to a quiet place sermon from 1 Kings and Mark 6
Hear a personal testimony from my time of struggle and transition in leadership. Hear how God reveals Godself and offers next steps to busy leaders from two examples in our Bible – one from the Old and one from the New Testament. Consider how one leader’s prayers for themselves and for their work impacted their entire organization. Is there an invitation for you sparked by this message today?…
Fully Stepping into God's Call a sermon about Moses and You
Consider what it means to be “called” by God as we look at Moses’s journey and God’s consistent presence. Fully stepping into God’s call is not something you’ll do alone. God was with Moses, guiding him through his fears and inadequacies when his call by God was unexpected, unwanted, new, and difficult. Notice how God was with him, leading and empowering him (and us), along the way. Watch my…
Contemplative Guided Practices 5 session series with Sejana
Hi, I’m Sejana! If you know me personally, you might know that I’m preparing to move from TX to KY for work. But before I move in May, I’m offering an opportunity to journey together in-person with me and a few others in my first ‘Guided Practices’ contemplative retreat series Mar 7th – Apr 7th, 2026. This 5 session series consists of 2 parts: * A guided in-person retreat that begins our time…
Online Church 25 January 2026 join in with Sejana
My local church (as well as others from what I’m seeing online) have wisely cancelled Sunday services early due to anticipation of Winter Storm Fern making its way across the U.S. But that doesn’t mean that we can’t meet together. So, in the spirit of one of my favorite passages in Scripture, let us gather together to encourage one another from a spirit of faith in the Lord. 23 Let us hold…
Recounting God's Care For Us sermon from Isaiah 63
On this last Sunday of 2025, I share a few words of encouragement and hope which I found in the Old Testament Lectionary text Scriptures for the 1st Sunday After Christmas Day. As I thought about all that has happened in 2025, I found comfort in this passage to share with this audience at the end of this year. Hear my latest sermon preached on 28 December 2025 called “Recounting God’s Care For…
Living Ready and With Expectation sermon from Luke 2
The unnamed shepherds, in the middle of their work, received a divine invitation. How did they respond? They weren’t the only ones who received some unexpected news. I take a close look at this passage from Luke 2, and use it to ask ourselves, how are we living ready and with expectation today? Afterall, today, in our lives and in the lives of others all around us, there are so many things –…
Where God Wants Us To Be sermon from Jeremiah 17
How do we know we are doing the right thing and operating in God’s will? We don’t want to miss it. That’s how I felt when I was younger and even still now that I’m older, among many different opportunities, sometimes I wonder which one is truly for me. Here is my response to this question and others like it in my latest sermon preached on 16 November 2025 called “Where God Wants Us To Be” from…
Waiting for the Lord sermon from Life and the Psalms
I’ve recently realized that there needed to be a shift in how I serve and DO for God. As a super busy person who juggles multiple things, I’ve realized all my DO-ing isn’t the way. I needed a new way. I share about this in my latest sermon preached on 9 November 2025 called “Waiting with God: A sermon from life and the Psalms” from several lines in different Psalms (Psalm 27:14; 62:5; 130:5;…
A New Way sermon from John 8
Check out my sermon I preached on 19 October 2025 called “A New Way” from the passage about the woman caught in adultery in John 7:53-8:11 linked below. I offer some thoughts from different scholars to help broaden the message typically shared from this passage (at least from the conservative circles I grew up in). May it encourage you! I preached this sermon as the main scheduled preacher this…
What's Keeping You Growing sermon from Mark 1
When I cut off all the white mold infested leaves of my cantaloupe plant in an effort to keep the disease from spreading, I inadvertently cut off its life source. That plant didn’t die immediately, but it did die slowly when I cut off its way of making food. Likewise, in our busy lives, how are we cutting off our sources of spiritual life too? In Mark 1:32-39, all the people were clamoring for…
Faith That Moves Us All sermon from Mark 2
Mark 2, verse 5 says that when Jesus saw THEIR faith, he responded with a controversial declaration to the paralyzed man lying on the mat in the middle of a packed room that included the authorized Scripture interpreters of that time (the scribes and more). What did everyone do? What were their responses? And how can examining this story closely from the book of Mark help us today with our own…
