Hear the messages that Father Jeremiah delivers each week
to the congregation of Grace Anglican.
When Nicodemus visits Jesus at night, there is more to their talk than meets the eye. How does Jesus being the light go with Nicodemus visiting him at night? How does someone hearing the wind go with hearing Scripture? Father Jeremiah speaks on these questions in this sermon.

Trinity Sunday is the Sunday in which we reflect on the meaning and importance of the doctrine of the Trinity. Father Jeremiah considers what it isn’t, what it is, and why any of this matters to us. Listen to find out more!

As Jesus’ ministry begins to grow, John’s disciples point out that all are going to Jesus. For John, this makes sense, but for this disciples, it is confusing. What have they missed? What does John know that they don’t? Why is John perfectly fine with a declining ministry? How does this affect us here in the present? Listen to find out from Father Jeremiah.

Nicodemus came to Jesus at night. What must have been going through his mind when he saw him and heard. It all connects to Genesis 12 and Romans 4. Promise, faith, sacraments all swirl together to reveal God’s kindness and steadfast love, in short, his grace to sinners like us so that we might know him.
