This sermon reflects on the parable of the lost sons to reveal the deep, compassionate love of God the Father—a love that both the rebellious and the obedient can fail to truly know—and invites listeners to move from merely understanding this love intellectually to experiencing it personally. Through story and personal testimony, it emphasizes that God lovingly seeks, restores, and welcomes all his children, calling them into a close, transformative relationship with him.

God passionately seeks out every person who is lost, not because of their worthiness but because they are deeply loved and treasured by Him. No matter how far we wander or how well we think we’re doing, God never stops pursuing us and rejoices when we are found.

This sermon, presented by Jennifer Lau, the Executive Director of Canadian Baptist Ministries (CBM), invites us to consider what it means to walk in unity with the global Church. We are encouraged to consider the cost of being a "proclaimer of freedom and good news, as Jesus was," with a particular emphasis on the cost of our willingness to be present, to be personally transformed, and to love deeply and without restraint.

This sermon reminds us that being a disciple of Jesus is not an easy thing - it requires us to be willing to give up everything. Listeners are challenged to consider what they may be called to give up in order to follow Jesus, and encouraged that following Jesus makes any cost worth it.

This sermon explores how Jesus challenges our assumptions about status and worth, and reminds us that in God's kingdom every person has equal worth and honour. We are called to reflect that truth by choosing humility and extending dignity and welcome to those the world often overlooks.

This sermon emphasizes that discipleship is not about anxious striving, but is about surrendering control and allowing the Holy Spirit to shape us into the likeness of Christ. Rather than living in fear of being shut out, we are invited to make space for God's Spirit, trusting that life formed by the Holy Spirit is what makes us part of God's family.
