Sermons
Through my technical work as a programmer, I got to give a large number of technical talks at various conferences. When I started to become more active in my church, it was therefore natural that I should give talks there too. So somehow, almost without really noticing it, I became a preacher.
I try to make the text of any sermon I preach available on the web. However, my thinking about Christianity changes continually as I discover more of who God is, more of what the Church is, and more of who I am. If you read something here that you think is a bit odd, then rest assured that I probably do by now as well...
