Belonging without Proof
Aug 4, 2024
Rev. Phoebe preaches her inaugural sermon at St. Barnabas. The crowd of 5000 have just been miraculously fed by Jesus Christ, but still do not believe. Jesus meets their unbelief with another gracious offering of himself as the Bread of Life. Phoebe preaches that Jesus' Love does not require us to prove ourselves. There is no entrance exam into the House of God. We all receive divine grace because we belong with God.
