Luke 6: 27-38
Seventh Sunday after Epiphany

Pastor's sermon is based upon the gospel reading from Luke 6:27-38. In his sermon on the plain, Jesus is coaxing us to look at things through the eyes of God. So here we sit, listening to Jesus preach. We react to most of what we hear with, “Yep, that makes sense to me,” or “Sure, I can go along with that.” We are the judge of appropriateness and the truth of whatever we hear. But then Jesus preaches about loving our enemies and turning the other cheek and we realize that he is thinking from a very different place than we think. God calls us to think this way and to live this way because it’s God’s way. Amen!
