Watchful and Ready

Aug 10, 2025  •  The Rev. Billy Cerveny

What does it mean to stay dressed for action and keep the lamps burning? Drawing on Augustine, the sermon names sin as a disorder of love, where good things like family or ministry take the throne. The Father's gift of his Son reveals what we are worth, and Jesus' picture of a master who serves his waiting servants shows that watchfulness grows from love rather than fear.
