The liberal arts, liberal in the classic sense, are meant for freedom.

Jeff Hendrix makes the case that perhaps this type of education is a remedy for many of our burdens today.

Sermon on the account of the healing of the man blind from birth in John 9, as part of our "Come and See" Advent series.  Jesus invites a man to literally and truly see – both physically and by faith.  This healing is a comfort to us, and shows what our reaction should be when the world refuses to see the grace and love of Jesus.  

Sermon on Psalm 85 for Advent 3, Gaudete Sunday.  Jesus, the "Coming One," the Word Incarnate, Truth made Flesh, is located in the most unlikely places.  As Psalm 85 says, "Truth springs out of the earth."  This makes all the difference for us, who like John the baptist, may appear outwardly tough, but inside we're an absolute mess.  It means Jesus is not far off from us during trouble, but right here with us.
