A Word: We get to love like this

Sermons · November 26, 2023

The challenge of loving like Jesus isn’t that we’ll do it wrong. It’s that we think it depends on our being a good person.


To be like Jesus here
Proper 29A  |  Matthew 25:31-46

We are finally arriving at the end. The end of our liturgical year. Nearing the end of our calendar year. And as we follow along with the disciples, we near the end of their journey with Jesus to his destination: the Temple in Jerusalem.

For us, we’ve spent weeks going over the confrontations, the refutations, the teachings, and for the last two weeks, the dark parables of the bridesmaids and the talents. It has been difficult, confusing, and emotionally convicting.

For the disciples, it has been one day.

And that day is nearing its end. This is it. 

The full text may be found here.

For a limited time, you may find the audio here.
