24.08.2025 – Adam Szumorek – (Un)fulfilled Dreams

A young couple walks into an empty apartment and can already see the bright kitchen, the bookshelf, the cozy bedroom, that is how dreams work: pictures of a future that does not yet exist. But what do we do when even the most beautiful dreams never come true? This sermon leads us through a pilgrim psalm (Psalm 132) and the story of David, who vowed to build God a temple yet never saw its walls, just as Peter, Paul and William Tyndale never lived to see the fruit of their labor. Listen and discover that God can fulfill our dreams on a scale we never imagined.

On the Journey

Travel and conversation complement each other perfectly. It’s best to travel in good company, because then every journey becomes an opportunity to exchange thoughts, but also to enjoy shared silence. Summer, a time of vacations and trips, is a good time to remind ourselves that God is the most important companion on our journey-including the greatest one of all, called life. And since we’re already journeying with Him, it’s worth enjoying conversation-in addition to those moments when we’re silent and simply enjoy each other’s presence.

That is why this summer we will read a series of psalms known as the “pilgrim” or “traveling” psalms, because they were recited during the journey to Jerusalem. It is a journey through the twists and turns of life-from sorrow and loneliness to community and worship. Yet the most important thing about it is that we can walk and talk with God Himself.
