My sermon series on Revelation is over, it ended last week. It may or may not resurface later on due to demand or lack there of. For the next three weeks I am going to be preaching a series titled 'Belief Basics'. Two years ago I preached on the mystery of the trinity, and covered it on this blog in God of Answers and Mystery which can be found here:

And in the next three weeks I plan on doing the same thing, but this time week one is God week two is Jesus and week three is the Holy Spirit (Ghost). I came to this decision in part because I didn't want to be preaching through Revelation on Easter Sunday morning. So tomorrow I am tackling God.
I don't know if you realize this, but God is a fairly large topic and I am trying to fit in 30 minutes give or take. This has not been the easiest task, as I have been sitting here off and on today for 8 hours so far and I am still just staring at a blank page. And the strangest thing is that I am staring at a blank screen not because I don't know what to say, but rather because I don't know what not to say.
It's a weird circumstance to be in. There is a Bible full of thoughts on God and there are an untold amount of books and movies and songs and poems and paintings and sculptures and musings and whisperings about God. But what is the basics? What is God's most important attributes, actions, movements, words? Do I try to encompass the thousands and thousands of years of human history into a quick movement? Maybe if I had the budget of the Cosmos I could show how God moved through the universal calender year, but I don't have a big screen or a projector or a budget really to speak of.
Wish me luck.
Peace and Love,
Pastor K
