2008 Sermons

Click on the "Open" button for the sermon you want to view. A new window will be created for each sermon you select.

The sermons have been converted to an HTML format for viewing on screen. Since different users employ different browsers, different monitors, and different screen resolution settings, it is not possible to format these documents automatically in a way that will work well for everyone. If the text appears too small, you can change the default font size on your browser. If the lines appear too long, use your mouse to diminish the size of your browser window so that it is not full-screen. (I.e., click-and-drag the borders of your browser window.)

If you decide to print a sermon, you may wish to import the text into a word processor and format the entire document differently. When we print sermons for our own use (for example, they are mailed to our shut-ins), we use a two-column "newspaper" format.

Thanks to Sharon Dittmar for transcribing and re-formatting the sermons and for posting them on the Website.

Sermons delivered prior to January 1, 2008, are now archived.
