On Christ the King Sunday, the last day of the church calendar year, we would expect scriptures that declare the majesty and reign of Jesus Christ. What does the story of the crucifixion have to do with God’s kingdom that is ushered in by Jesus? “The cross is not a detour or a hurdle on the way to the kingdom, nor is it even the way to the kingdom; it is the kingdom come” (John Howard Yoder, Politics of Jesus).
~ Colossians 1:11-20 & Luke 23:33-43

We visited Tommy Gomes on Sunday 11/27/2016 and we listened to this sermon together as he is unable to come to church.
God Bless
