You Belong- Easter 5C

Lutheran Sermons

"...Part of human nature is to build defenses, create biases, draw assumptions that will protect ourselves. It is part of who we are to draw lines of in and out. We do this to be safe. But it is also part of human nature for these defenses, biases, and assumptions to be challenged. It’s human nature to protect ourselves, close off our circles until someone proves to us that they are worthy of belonging with us. This is HUMAN nature, but it not DIVINE nature. Where we draw circles around what belongs, God draws a wider one..." Sermon Preached by Pastor Alex Zuber at Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in Lexington, VA on 5/19/2019.
