  • 130 - 11.17.24 • Bless This (Holy) Life: Saint Paul the Apostle and the Communion of the Saints • Acts 9:1-8

    In this sermon we conclude our series on the saints by looking at the life of Saint Paul the Apostle. We consider the devotion (yes, that’s right) behind his efforts to destroy (ravage, roundup, jail, kill) the church and how Christ was able to break through and change the direction of his life. From there we consider a couple passage from his letters and with the help of something called sympathetic resonance (it’s a piano thing) what it means to abandon our lives to way of Jesus.
