Three Sundays, One Arc

The Great Commandment Preached Publicly

The Sermon Pack is a three-week preaching resource for partner pastors. Each week pairs scripture with a thesis, a sermon outline, three congregational questions, a bulletin insert, a pulpit announcement, and a benediction.

Week 1 — Love Together

Scripture: Matthew 22:36-40 · 1 John 4:7-12 · Hebrews 10:24-25
Thesis: Love is the first commandment, and love is never a solo act. The God we love commands us to love one another publicly, visibly, together.

Week 2 — Vote Together

Scripture: Micah 6:6-8 · Matthew 22:39 · Matthew 25:31-46
Thesis: Loving our neighbor as ourselves requires a body. Voting is one of the most accessible expressions of that body's love in public life.

Week 3 — Stay Together (Souls To The Polls Sunday, November 1)

Scripture: Galatians 6:9 · Esther 4:14 · Matthew 22:36-40 (as bookend)
Thesis: The Great Commandment is a way of life, not a one-time act. We stay together because love is the long obedience.
