I haven’t posted my podcasts in a while. Although some of it may be attributable to laziness the real reason is that I dedicated the month of January to preaching a series directed specifically to my congregational context in an effort to spur us on to more missional living. Those sermons consisted of the following topics:
Be Active from 2 Thessalonians
Be Prayerful from 1 Timothy
Be Re-lit from 2 Timothy
Be Age Appropriate from Titus
I post these below if they may be of any help or benefit to anyone. Also included is the sermon I preached last week during our annual “Friend Sunday.” It is a narrative sermon from Philemon entitled “Be Set Free”
Alas, my sermon from today did not get recorded. I’m a little cheesed because it was one that I was really pleased with where I name-dropped MLK and Shane Claiborne. Oh, well.
I was going to post my top 10 Christian books of the year, but losing most of the day to a vicious migraine has made that impossible. I’ll get to that but I still plan on doing my top 10 Albums of the year come Tuesday.
So, instead, please find a scattering of thoughts.
–I am glad that Mitch Mustain and Ben Cleveland have decided to stay at Arkansas. But two suggestions: get on board and tell your parents to stay off campus.
–Nicolas Cage says that he is going to slow down the movie making. Thank you, Nick.
–Perusing over the Golden Globe Noms this morning are putting me in the Oscar mood. In case you didn’t know I am a huge Academy Award guy. I have seen every best picture and best actor winner and for the last decade have seen almost all the major nominees. Some thoughts:
* I’m surprised to see “Bobby” in the Drama category. The only real buzz for this flick was on Oprah and seemed DOA. But it seems to have taken the nom from “Blood Diamond.”
* Oscar is noted for its backlash. If someone peaks too early they very well could lose (See Brokeback Mountain and Saving Private Ryan). However, I find it hard to believe that Helen Mirren has any competition in the Best Actress race.
* The biggest existing crime is that Scorsese has never won. You would think that he has a great shot this year with The Departed getting so much buzz. But look, there is Eastwood again. Twice.
* On the TV side, apart from “The Office,” that is one horrible list of comedy nominees.
* But look at the nominees for best male comedy actor. That is one stellar lineup with one exception: Jason Lee. I love “My Name is Earl” and I am a Jason Lee fan. But he is nothing more than a straight man who elicits no laughs.
–And finally, I have updated my podcast page by including my last four sermons. They include:
“Be Free” from Galatians
“Be One” from Ephesians
“Be Like Christ” from Philippians
“Be Mature” from Colossians (I apologize that this podcast is 8 hours long. It was not shut off after the morning sermon. Fast forward and you can hear my Sunday Night Class.)
I don’t plan on going so long without updating again.
Today’s podcast is a two-fer. I’ve included last week’s sermon which I forgot to post. On the embeddable player below those two sermons should show up eventually. If not, click on the blue text that says “Scott Freeman’s Sermons” and it will take you to my podomatic page. These sermons are from 1 and 2 Corinthians. The first is on marriage and divorce, the second is on reconciliation and conflict resolution. Enjoy.
It’s on Monday, but it still works. This is a sermon from Romans 12.
Listen to this sermon from John 3 here.
From Luke 5:27:32. It starts a few seconds into my reading the text.

This begins my new sermon series titled “The Scarlet Thread, Part 2: Who Jesus Calls Us To Be.” Today’s text is from Matthew 5:48, “Be perfect, therefore, as your Heavenly Father is perfect.”
I got worked up a little.
