Episode Synopsis

"The Found Word" – Psalm 1; John 1:1-5, 14-18
Part VI of the Lenten sermon series, "Found in Exile."
Sermon by Dr. George C. Anderson from Sunday, April 3, 2022. "I hope by now you realize that a great way to get to know this living Jesus is to realize that he is the God who we know in Exile. Jesus is the God we can meet at the table in our own homes. The living tradition of God—which is relentlessly about love of God and neighbor as commanded in the Torah, as demanded by the prophets, and as reflected in the writings—is real only when it becomes faith that is embraced in our hearts and lived in our lives and embodied in community. We give this living Word of God a name. And we find our identity as God’s children in knowing him, and our place in the living tradition of justice and grace by following him."
