Hope Presbyterian Church In Winston-salem Sermons

Series: Luke (Advent 2021 - Easter 2022)Scripture: Luke 3 “The reason of my waking mind tells me that great evil has befallen and we stand at the end of days. But my heart says nay; and all my limbs are light, and a hope and joy are come to me that no reason can deny.”  JRR Tolkien, The Return of the King “The mystery of the incarnation reveals to us the spiritual dimension of human solidarity. We cannot live in intimate communion with Jesus without being sent to our brothers and sisters who belong to that same humanity that Jesus has accepted as his own. Thus intimacy manifests itself as solidarity and solidarity as intimacy.”  Henri Nouwen, Lifesigns “The picture at Jesus’ baptism is of God stepping out of heaven to address people, of God entering into their everyday world. Clearly God takes the initiative to show humanity the way to him.”  Darrell BockThe post The Messiah Enters Tension and Expectation first appeared on Hope Church PCA.
