Funeral Sermons That Proclaim And Celebrate
$16.18“So today we gather to share our love and our stories with one another. We come to hear the voice of the Good Shepard reflected in the voice of family and friends. We cry together and we laugh together and we know that in both we are embraced in the arms of our loving God.”
Taken from one of George Reed’s many funeral sermons that make up Funeral Seermons that Proclaim and Celebrate, Reed teaches that the passing of a loved one should not be seen as the end of a life, but rather the beginning of a new chapter in which the deceased has been reborn with God in heaven. Throughout his book, he encourages his audience to remember their late relatives and friends through their memories, of all the good times spent together. He reminds us of how the deceased’s actions display God’s presence in the world. Their life, though beautiful like a rainbow, similarly cannot last forever, but the memories of that rainbow lives on in our memories long after its passing. “We will miss the physical presence of NAME but we know that the joy of this rainbow will continue in the presence of God for all eternity and that someday we will again enjoy the fullness of that blessing.”
No matter who your loved one is, or how you want them to be remembered, Reed has offered the guidelines on how to honor them perfectly, using sermons such as:
– “Comfort My People” (Isiah 40:1-8)
– “Many Rooms” (John 14:1-4, 18-19, 25-27)
– “God’s Fullness Within Us” (Ephesians 3:14-21)Throughout this time of grief and mourning, Reed encourages us to remember peaceful memories of our loved ones with whom we will be reunited in heaven.

Counting The Cost Cycle C
$16.18Micah 6:8 calls us to act justly, pursue mercy, and walk humbly before our God, yet in today’s America, we often find ourselves pursuing justice for ourselves at the expense of caring for the needs of the world. When we truly stop to count the cost of following Jesus, however, we become wide-eyed to the words of Jesus that call us to care for the orphaned, the widowed, the oppressed, and the forgotten.
In his collection of Cycle C sermons for Proper 13 through Proper 22, George Reed, O.S.L., does not pretend to have easy solutions for a broken world; he does, however, know that when darkness is covered by the light of redemption, hindering ideologies begin to fade into a bold background of love.
Throughout each sermon, Reed sketches out humanity’s role in the kingdom, urging us to be representatives of God’s love–delegates who are willing to lay aside all differences for a commonpurpose. This, he believes, is how we will change hearts and lives, and whether Counting the Cost is used solely as a sermon resource or expanded for a small group or private devotional, Christ followers will be challenged by Reed’s discussions on the life of Jesus–and his reminders on our responsibility to reflect a holy and divine love.
Sermon Titles Include:
* Who’s The Fool(Luke 12:13-21)
* Joy As Our Hallmark(Luke 15:1-10)
* A Poor Banquet(Luke 14:1, 7-14)Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase
