Pastor preached on how we need to expand our church to fit more people, if we really want to reach out. We title the sermon “Razing the Roof”.

Mistake. Many people didn’t get it. They thought I misspelled Raising.

Best one I remember has to be: “Shaken, not Stirred” which was a Good Friday message on the Roman guards at the crucifixion, and how we, like them, can become unmoved by the cross. The allusion to 007 was a tad controversial, but the reference to the earthquake did connect.

This past month we’ve been talking about how God has big plans for your life and that you can achieve more than you think you can when you put your life in His hands. So we’ve used the idea of Transformers for the metaphor and used the new movies for movie clip illustrations. We used the same basic font and look of the Transformers movie title and named the series “TRANSFORMATION” and subtitled it “You’re More Than Meets the Eye”. Individual sermon titles for this series were “Prime for Change”, “Shape Shifters”, “More Than Meets the Eye”, and “The Optimal Life”.

One of my favorites was “Great or Grating?”, a sermon on how to be great in God’s kingdom. We even included a game show for congregation participation. Let me tell you, if you’re used to doing subtle, restrained graphics, to get to do a game show motif is a blast!

More recently, our pastor did a sermon on the premise that an open door does not necessarily indicate God’s will or God’s path for you. So we named the sermon “When is a door not a door?”
