Rev Robert's Sermon for Lent 2 (Year A) - Feb 25,, 2024. He writes:

In this sermon I pick up from where Noah left off. God is trying to change the way we function. He would like to replace freedom as autonomy with freedom as responsibility. And where Noah, though righteous failed, Abraham succeeds. Abraham exemplifies the inner-directed life of faith and shows us what a leader after God's own heart looks like.
