Weird Things Christians Do: Listen To Sermons
It’s not much of a secret that I have a short attention span. I’m easily distracted. It doesn’t take much for me to momentarily lose my place and… hey look at that bird! He’s funny looking!
… sorry about that.
I’m sure I’m not alone in our fast-paced world. Generally speaking, we like things to happen immediately, if not sooner. We get frustrated if the traffic lights take too long to turn green. We prefer headlines over long news articles. If a movie is longer than 90 minutes, it better have some big explosions to keep us from fidgeting in our seats.
Which is why I sometimes think it strange that when Christians meet together, they sit down and listen to someone talk for a solid length of time. With attention spans (allegedly) getting shorter, why do we all gather in a room on a Sunday and listen to a sermon together?
Updated Sermon List
I realised that I hadn’t updated my sermon page in a while. Or for that matter uploaded any sermons. So that’s been fixed now. As always, I’d appreciate any feedback.
Check out the sermon page here.
Sermon: The Great Commission
What do you do after Easter? Jesus has risen from the dead. Now what?
I gave this sermon at St Luke’s Liverpool the week after Easter. Matthew 28 is often used to tell people to go out and evangelise. Which is good and true. But there’s so much more going on in this passage.

Podcasting
***Updated***
Some people have been having trouble downloading my sermons. And I found out this week that the server that I keep them on is changing file access, so I had to come up with a new way of getting my talks out there.
So I’m trying my hand at podcasting. You can subscribe to me on itunes.
I’m slowly adding my audio files to the original posts, so you’ll also be able to listen to them here on the Pop Culture Christ site.
If you have any comments or feedback, please fire away!

Sermon: Galatians 6
Be Excellent To Each Other
The passage was Galatians 6, where I encouraged the congregation to “Be Excellent To Each Other”.
Sermon Preview: Jesus – Who Reigns Over Us
This term at St Luke’s we have been looking at Christology. We’ve seen how Jesus was promised since day one, how he came into the world, how he died on the cross and he rose from the dead.
But what now?

End of Month Review – July 2008
Behind The Scenes
It’s the 30th of the month, so time for another End of Month Review. I know July has 31 days, but WordPress’ stats work on a 30 day cycle, so this will be more accurate. A lot has happened on Pop Culture Christ this month, with the site receiving more than twice the hits it received during June.
