St Bride's Sermon Series
As the parish church of journalism, St Bride's is keen to hear and disseminate the word of visiting preachers both lay and clergy. Each Lent there is a series of sermons during Sunday morning services on a given theme. Here you can find the transcripts of those sermons and those of previous years.
Conflict, hatred and suspicion now haunt the lands of the Middle East where Jesus walked. And yet Jesus calls us to be peacemakers (Matthew 5: 9).
The teaching and example of Jesus point to a distinctive way of responding to injustice and overcoming evil with good. As people of faith we should be praying, "Lord, make us instruments of your peace".
This year's sermon series, entitled Blessed Are The Peacemakers, looks at various aspects of the situation in the Middle East with that prayer in mind.
