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.
This year's series is entitled When I survey: Christ's Cross & Ours.
The death of Christ is a dominant and dramatic theme in the New Testament. So it is not surprising that over the centuries the Cross has become the symbol of the Christian faith. According to the Bible the death of Jesus is not the end, but the gateway into life. His crucifixion gives rise to many key themes, some of which we explore in this Lent Sermon Series. The sermons are delivered in the content of the 11am Choral Eucharist at St Bride's each Sunday in Lent.
