Culture of God...Now

Culture of God...Now

"... [Jesus] taught them about the kingdom [culture] of God and healed as many that were in need of healing..."
Luke 9:11

A sermon on how to participate in the "culture" of God. Fr John Brian suggests that substituting the word "culture" for "kingdom" can make it more relevant in our modern multi-cultural world. It also helps see how much in the present it is.

The sermon uses the readings from the Malankara lectionary, including Luke 9:10-17; 2 Corinthians 5:14-20 and Isaiah 40:27-31 for the Sunday as well as scripture for the Apostles, especially 1st Corinthians 12:28-13:10 and for St Thomas, 1 Peter 2 :15-17.

This sermon given on Sunday, July 5, 2009 by Fr John Brian Paprock at
Holy Transfiguration Orthodox Mission Chapel, Madison, Wisconsin.
