Fearing the Good News, Eliminating or Enhancing God’s Power

Fearing the Good News, Eliminating or Enhancing God’s Power

The sermon this week was based on the lectionary passages from I Kings 17:8-24 and Luke 7:11-17.  Both are stories of widows who had lost their sons.  Pastor Dennis asked me to consider not posting this week’s sermon because he didn’t think it was one of his best.  Rick Geyer’s sudden passing just 3 hours or so before the service was clearly weighing heavily on him.  However, some of our members look forward to this when they can’t make it to church on Sunday, and besides how can I not post a sermon that talks about the book of Revelations, the Wizard of Oz, Elton John, and the pop music group America in the space of about a minute?  Keep Rick and his wife and family, and Pastor Dennis in your prayers.
