![]() While
Paul waited. . . at Athens, his spirit was stirred in him, when he saw
the city wholly given to idolatry. Therefore disputed he in the synagogue
with the Jews, and with the devout persons, and in the market daily with
them that met with him. Then certain philosophers of the Epicureans, and
of the Stoicks, encountered him. And some said, What will this babbler
say? other some, He seemeth to be a setter forth of strange gods: because
he preached unto them Jesus, and the resurrection. . . . And when they
heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked: and others said, We
will hear thee again of this matter. So Paul departed from among them.
Howbeit certain men clave unto him, and believed: among the which was
Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.

SermonsThe links on the right side of your screen take you to an archive of sermons preached at the Church of the Ascension and Saint Agnes in recent years. In Acts, XX, 11, we
meet the term "homilesas"; here it is used, for the first time,
to signify a sermon to the Christians in connexion with the breaking of
bread: it was evidently an informal discourse, or exposition of doctrine,
for we are told that St. Paul "talked a long time . . . until daylight". Selected Sermons,
