SERMON SNAPSHOT: Sunday, October 22, 2023
Dear Friends in Christ –
How many of you like roller coasters? The experience of intentionally putting yourself into circumstances that feel, or may actually be life-threatening or at the least lunch-throwing.
For some a roller coaster is exhilarating. For some may be terrifying. But we usually have the opportunity to buy the ticket, stand in line– to have time to reconsider– before we step onto the platform and into the ride called The Cyclone, or The Twister, or The Anaconda or The Avalanche, or Buzzsaw Falls.
It seems like these last few weeks we’ve been unable to get off the roller coaster. If it’s not the economy, it’s the election, it’s the wars, it’s the earth-quaking, fires incinerating and the specter of the deluge. We realize how powerless we are.
In our text, two unlikely groups unite to take down this upstart itinerant preacher. This Sunday we’ll see their games don’t work.
Come to the park. Fresh air, gospel music and the gospel – invite everybody you know!
