This sermon takes a look at the Bible's summary of all sin as either a failure to love God or to love one's fellow man.  All sin is a failure of love.  As stated in the sermon, the command to love is the most difficult in the Bible given our proclivity to selfishness.

This sermon takes its title from the language of exiles used in 1 Peter and it refers to how disciples of Jesus are more like refugees than settled residents.  This is the first sermon in a short series on the study of sin.  

This sermon looks at the role of influence in our lives by examining how sin spread from David's life to his whole family.  The text of the sermon is 1 Samuel 13:1-22 which is about the rape of Tamar by Amnon, half-brother and half-sister, both children of David.
