Rev. Cari preached on Jeremiah 31:31-34, and also touched on John 12:20-33 for this final sermon of the “Theological Banquet” series. She was preaching on her “home” stream in the banquet, the Ecclesial stream, and invited the congregation to consider (during this time of sheltering at home due to the COVID-19 pandemic) living from the inside out.
We are more used to living from the outside in, and keeping busy with outside activities. In these texts, both Jeremiah and John’s Jesus seem to suggest that the way of faith runs counter to that familiar mode.
Listen for the invitation to you personally, and to all of us corporately, hidden in these texts.
