Selected Live Oak Sermons
Here is a taste of what you can hear at our church. Kathleen
Ellis includes most of her sermons here, so come back monthly for
thought-provoking ideas from her!
We have not added many new Chuck Freeman sermons from 2000
until present, because that darned Chuck has taken to not writing down his
sermons! We do record him though, so see below to hear both ministers'
sermons in trendy MP3 format.
Sermon Recordings
Recordings of the Sunday sermons and parables are available in MP3 format. When you click on a
recording, it will be downloaded to a temporary folder on your computer, so be
sure you have space for the file you wish to listen to. Once downloaded, your
preferred sound playing software will come up, and the sermon will play for
you, or you can put it on your iPod or other MP3 player to enjoy anywhere!

Both our Unitarian and Universalist histories were explored.
