Liturgy that matters – February 28, 2021 – Romans 4:13-25

Themes: While the lectionary highlights this Roman passage with the Augustinian-Lutheran take on Paul in mind, we highlight the views of Jewish New Testament scholars who place Paul firmly within Judaism. With their help, we explore possibilities of Paul’s answer to the late philosopher activist Grace Lee Bogg’s question, “what time is it on the clock of the world?” This and more on the ripple effect of righteous living and claiming the power God has given us.

This week’s sermon commentaries are written by Rev. M Jade Kaiser.
