Sermon Podcasts

Saint Stephen’s is experimenting with podcasts—we’re going to record a few sermons and see how things go. Podcasts will be added to this page until it becomes too unwieldy. Note that the “permalink” links are tied to specific podcast entries, in case you want to send a specific link to a friend. (At some point this list will become rather unwieldy.)

“Now Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, being the ninth hour.

And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us. And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something of them. Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk. And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet and ancle bones received strength.” Acts iii:1-7
