Description

Drawing from Isaiah’s vineyard, Psalm 80’s plea, and Jesus’ fire in Luke 12, this sermon reflects on what it means to overturn the empire in our hearts and to welcome one another as kin in God’s house. Through personal memories of exclusion and experiences of grace, the message calls us to resist easy lines of division and to live into the baptismal promise of belonging and love. (Isaiah 5:1–7; Psalm 80:1–2, 8–18; Luke 12:49 –56)
