What if the real barrier between you and God isn't your mess but your quiet certainty that you're already doing okay?
In this opening message of our Eastertide series Following Jesus in Real Life, Rev. Seth invites us to sit with two storiesone of pride, one of regretand to consider what happens when Jesus steps in and interrupts both. This is a sermon about the unraveling of self-sufficiency, the kind of grace that names the wound without shaming it, and the strange, healing voice that calls us back when we didnt even know we were lost.

The New Morning: The Undoing of Sin
Why do so many of us miss the resurrection even when it is right in front of us?
In this final message of The Anatomy of Sin, Rev. Seth looks at how the way we see the world can keep us from seeing what is most beautiful. The resurrection of Jesus is not just something to believe. It is something to behold. And once you see it for what it is, everything shifts.

The End of Sin: The End & The Beginning
Why would anyone call the brutal death of an innocent man good?
In this Good Friday message from The Anatomy of Sin, Rev. Seth takes us to the foot of the cross. Not to explain it away but to let it speak. This is where the weight of everything wrong meets the love of a God who refuses to walk away.

The Weight of Sin: Beneath the Palms
What if the king doesnt come to give us what we want, but to show us what weve wanted all wrong?
On Palm Sunday, the crowd expected rescue on their terms: power, freedom, change. But Jesus had something else in mind. In this message, Rev. Seth invites us to consider what happens when God doesnt affirm our expectations but addresses the deeper problem weve been avoiding all along, and why that might be the very thing that saves us.

The Death of Sin: Rust and Ruin
What if the thing that feels like wisdom is actually just self-preservation dressed up in virtue?
In this weeks message from The Anatomy of Sin, Rev. Seth explores the moment Mary pours out everything she has at Jesus feet, and Judas calls it a waste. It's a story about the difference between usefulness and love, between appearances and reality, between holding back and pouring it all out.
Because sometimes what looks foolish is the only thing that makes sense if Jesus is really who He says He is.
