Sermons

The Vicar, visiting clergy, and Readers preach at each of the Sunday services.  Sermons at the 8 a.m. and 10 a.m. Eucharists on Sundays are usually lectionary based (related to the three cycle of readings set for Sundays).  Sermons at Evensong are often but not invariably related to the lectionary.  Sometimes the preacher addresses a topical subject.

Below are links to a few sermons preached at Christ Church.  They may either represent the text of what was preached or a summary of a sermon's argument.
