Welcome to SERMON SEEDS
“Speak, for your servant is listening….” (1 Samuel 3:10)
Sermon Seeds is a preparation resource designed for use with the Revised Common Lectionary. Each week, you’ll find that Sunday’s Lectionary texts and a reflection on the focus text. Sermon Seeds are also adapted as “Weekly Seeds” on ucc.org for Bible study in the local church and for personal devotion and study. Along with the text and reflection, you’ll find a prayer, additional thoughts for reflection, and focus questions for discussion.
The United Church of Christ participates in the Consultation on Common Texts, which has designed the Revised Common Lectionary. For more information on the Lectionary, go to commontexts.org.
Would you like to discuss the sermon you’re preparing for this Sunday? You’re invited to join us on Facebook at Sermon Seeds (United Church of Christ).
