A Father Who Runs

The HPUMC-Sanctuary Sermons (Traditional Worship) podcast offers a weekly connection to the pulpit of Highland Park United Methodist Church in Dallas, Texas. Each episode presents the full sermon from the church's traditional worship service, featuring the thoughtful and grounded preaching of Senior Minister Rev. Paul Rasmussen and Rev. Matt Tuggle.

The messages grapple with scripture, faith, and the challenges of living with compassion and purpose, providing substance for personal study or simply a moment of weekly inspiration. Whether you are a longtime member of the congregation, a seeker exploring faith, or someone who appreciates substantive sermon content, this podcast delivers the core of the Sunday message directly to you. It serves as an audio extension of the church's community, allowing the worship experience to travel beyond the physical walls of the sanctuary. Tune in for a regular practice of contemplation and to engage with teachings that encourage a deeper, more intentional spiritual journey.
