The Gospel of Jesus
/On this last Sunday of Ordinary Time, we reflect on the goodness of the Gospel.
Sermons at Pearl seek to engage the ancient stories, poems, and letters in the Bible through imaginative oration that rouses our wholeness as human beings. The act of the sermon at Pearl is space to ponder the sacred, opportunity to consider the mystery and love of God, and provocation to slow down, to think deeply, and to be stirred and inspired to bountifully live.
On this last Sunday of Ordinary Time, we reflect on the goodness of the Gospel.
This sermon series, "Wrestling with Words” intends to consider, ponder and mediate on words that have been overused, misused or used so narrowly that to us they have lost their meaning. Our intention is not so much to perfectly understand or define, but wrestle with these words so their profound beauty and texture and depth come alive to us again.
This week we continue with the word "gospel" as the “good news” pronounced by Jesus, announcing a new way of being here, now, under the peaceable reign of God, which brings mercy and goodness to all people.
