Sermon | March 27, 2016

March 27, 2016, The Rev. Doyt L. Conn, Jr. preaching

God’s vision is universal and God’s vision is particular and that includes all people, one person at a time. And because you know one person (and I know you know at least one person) then you can be a person of hope in the world. You can ask the particular question: What can I do for you? Then listen, and then listen more deeply, And then respond with what God gave you.

The Great Easter Vigil: Baptism with Water

Sermon | March 26, 2016

March 26, 2016, The Rev. Doyt L. Conn, Jr. preaching
