The Sermon That Did Not Record Which Had Katy Perry and Frederick Buechner In It

Brian Dolleman — Tue, 16 Aug 2022 01:05:36 +0000

Yesterday, after our church service ended, I picked up my phone from the chair and was surprised to see I had a text message notification from my wife. She had been there with me, in that same service, up on the stage and down on the first row. My first thought was that maybe she […]

Church Without All The BS

Brian Dolleman — Tue, 30 Nov 2021 20:52:52 +0000

These are the notes from my sermon preached on 11.21.21 at NWLife Church – the 9th in a series of 10 sermons based on the book of Nehemiah called “When Everything’s On Fire.” The title of my sermon today is: “Church Without All The BS.” Up to this point, Nehemiah has had quite the journey… A […]

Joyful In Hope

Brian Dolleman — Sun, 03 Jan 2021 17:11:41 +0000

NOTE: I was really excited to preach this sermon today… but when I arrived early this morning at the church to begin prepping for our Drive-Thru Food Bank, I heard a distinct dripping sound and noticed significant water damage in our auditorium. We’re assessing it now, but it’s obviously not safe to hold a service […]

Shari’s Unscripted Commentary

Brian Dolleman — Tue, 26 Jul 2016 15:45:01 +0000

Each Sunday, when I’ve finished my sermon, Shari joins me on stage for a few moments of unscripted commentary. I get the sense that this is what people most enjoy about the “sermon time.” And it’s not included on the videos we post online… Interesting thing, that. Maybe the best bits about church can never […]

Wind of God

Brian Dolleman — Fri, 17 Jun 2016 21:44:56 +0000

This is the sermon bumper from Sunday’s message – part 2 in our Untamed series, “Sails Up, The Wind Is Blowing.” It’s one of my favorites. Kinda felt like there was no need to preach after it – it would have been enough just to let that sink in… Video & sound editing—Shaun Jones-Morford, voice—Cierra […]

Considering Who Is In Those Pews

Brian Dolleman — Thu, 07 Aug 2014 12:30:25 +0000

In Frederick Buechner‘s book Telling The Truth – The Gospel as Tragedy, Comedy, and Fairy Tale, he briefly describes a few people sitting in those pews on a Sunday morning… “In the front pews the old ladies turn up their hearing aids, and a young lady slips her six year old a Lifesaver and a […]

When A Late Night Comedian Preaches

Brian Dolleman — Tue, 01 Jul 2014 15:35:36 +0000

Have you ever wondered what it would sound like if a rock star preached? Never mind – we’ve all heard Bono do it. How about a late night comedian / talk show host? Back in February of 2007, Craig Ferguson gave us a taste… Admitting the need to change. Sharing his own battles. Identifying with […]
