Matthew 16:13-20

Our Seminarian in Residence, Leigh Pylman is preaching.

This week, Jesus asks us the piercing question, "Who do you say that I am?" So simple, and yet, our response to this question will inform our whole worldview. Who do you say that Jesus is? We'll ponder Peter's response to Jesus, and consider how Jesus, as the Messiah and builder of the Church, incorporates you and me into the rich legacy of the Church. At its core, the Church's message doesn't boil down to a catechism or a prescribed list of rules, it centers around a person - Jesus our Messiah.
