Westminster Presbyterian Church, Alexandria Va

Brutal heat. Long-running and simmering divisions. Lingering stress. Sound familiar? We might long for words of peace, a Scripture that soothes us from the troubles of today’s world; instead, we get a Jesus who predicts division, a scorching heat carried by southerly winds. How do Jesus’ words in this passage challenge some of our assumptions about how we understand his message? Rev. Patrick Hunnicutt preaches today from Luke 12:49-56.
