Sermon Sneak Peek

Week Of: May 10, 2021
Speaker: Pastor Will Hagenbuch
Scripture: John 17:13-26

Are you experiencing harsh scenes? Is too much coming in too high (as in gas prices) or too hard (as in life these days)? If so, I invite you to listen to this prayer in John 17 (our scripture Sunday).

_____________

FULL TRANSCRIPT: Unlike this scene, I experienced a harsh scene this morning. You may experience harsh scenes every morning. To this, I share select verses from John 17, starting with verse 13b.

“I told them many things while I was with them in this world so they would be filled with my joy. I’m not asking you to take them out of the world, but to keep them safe from the evil one. Just as you sent me into the world, I am sending them into the world.”

“I am praying not only for these disciples but also for all who will ever believe in me through their message. I pray that they will all be one, just as you and I are one—as you are in me, Father, and I am in you. May they experience such perfect unity that the world will know that you sent me and that you love them as much as you love me.”

Harshness doesn’t hold when God’s love flows. So flow. Maybe even splash. With the love of the Father and the Son inside you, allow your message to brighten a day, a week, a lifetime. Amen.
