Sermons on discipleship
Making Room for One Another
In this message, Michelle Tepper explores Paul’s teaching in Romans 14 about maintaining unity within the body of Christ despite differences in convictions, traditions, and worship practices. Drawing from everyday examples in church life, she reminds believers that Christians have always held differing opinions on non-essential matters, yet God calls His people to live together in love.
Grace First, Then Gratitude
In this sermon on Romans 12:1-2, we explore the significance of Paul’s opening word, “therefore,” and why the Christian life must always begin with God’s grace before moving to our response. Christian ethics are not driven by guilt or obligation, but by gratitude for God’s mercy revealed in Jesus Christ. Sermon preached by Peter Tepper on 23 August 2026 at St Peter the Fisherman, New Smyrna Beach, Florida.
