Sermon Audio (3.23.14) – Lent 3
March 24th, 2014 | John Chandler
John Chandler preached on Romans 5:1-11 for our third week of Preparing for Resurrection together. Lent is a time where we engage suffering to invite the hope of Easter, but what does that look like for us the rest of the year, when resurrection isn’t evident on the calendar>
Here are some of the quotes and resources mentioned:
- Yoda’s concantenation
- “I’ve read and studied about various other ways of thinking, and I like the way most religions are based on the same good, underlying principles. I believe in taking a positive attitude toward the world, toward people, and toward my work. I think I’m here for a purpose. I think it’s likely that we all are, but I’m only sure about myself. I try to tune myself in to whatever it is that I’m supposed to be, and I try to think of myself as a part of all of us — all mankind and all life. I find it’s not easy to keep these lofty thoughts in mind as the day goes by, but it certainly helps me a great deal to start out this way.” — Jim Henson, via Brian Jay Jones in Jim Henson: The Biography
- “No one argues that different economic systems or political regimes are one and the same. Capitalism and socialism are so obviously at odds that their differences hardly bear mentioning. The same goes for democracy and monarchy. Yet scholars continue to claim that religious rivals such as Hinduism and Islam, Judaism and Christianity are, by some miracle of the imagination, essentially the same, and this view resounds in the echo chamber of popular culture.” — Stephen Prothero in God is Not One
