Embrace the Incarnate Life (2022 Annual Report)
Embrace the Incarnate Life (2022 Annual Report)
Book: Exodus, Matthew, Philippians, Psalms
Sermon given by the Rev. Nathan Stomberg on the Feast of the Transfiguration (2/19/2023).
Beloved, the Church is the only place where people can find true healing and refuge from the failings of a fallen world. We have an obligation to stand as outposts of truth and sanity amid a culture that is losing its collective grip on reality. This requires the Church to no longer abandon her simple duty to point out what is right and wrong, even when it is “controversial.” Our call to embrace the incarnate life, then, is to accept our duty as the Church – to be the hands and feet of Christ in our communities.
Readings: Exodus 24:12-18; Psalm 99; Philippians 3:7-14; Matthew 17:1-9
