Ash Wednesday
from All Souls Parish Sermons · host Philip Brochard
The Rev. Phil Brochard Reflecting on writing their aunt’s obituary, the preacher explores how obituaries reveal what a person truly treasured in life. This becomes a lens for understanding Lent as a yearly reminder of mortality and a chance to reorient our hearts. Drawing on Jesus’ teaching about almsgiving, prayer, fasting, and treasure in Matthew’s Gospel, the sermon invites listeners to pay attention to where they direct their hearts and energy. By facing death honestly, we learn how to live intentionally—storing up what truly matters rather than what rusts and fades.
