church sermons
Pulpit addresses weekly
Church sermons are religious speeches delivered during worship services, typically by clergy expounding on scripture or moral teachings.
The phrase is somewhat redundant—sermons are already associated with churches—but emphasizes the formal, congregational setting: The pastor's church sermons always ran long.
Outside church contexts, sermon extends to any moralizing lecture: I don't need another sermon from you.
