One thing have I desired of the Lord... that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life...Psalm 27:4

Simply the Sermon for January 26, 2025

The sermon today takes the reading from 1 Corinthians 12:12-31a as it's jumping off point. The apostle and pastor Paul uses the metaphor of the human body to describe how intimately connected we are in the church. Unfortunately, we sometimes lose sight of this connectedness, this inter-reliance, and we fail to recognize God in the faces we see around us. God uses prophets and pesterers to bring us back the love of God and gift of our siblings around the world.
