Sermons Out of Rural Ministry
Its a Question of Physics - John 1.1-18

Pastor Josh Ehrler
Does God exist in our world? Sure, we're good with that. Does God exist in our neighbors? Definitely, we like our neighbors. Does God exist in the people we disregard? Depends on if they're good or not. Or, if we read the gospel of John, particularly John 1 for this sermon, it may not depend on us. It may not even matter what we think about another person. Grace and truth might just be completely beyond our control. #sermon #grace #truth #fullnessoflife #youareloved
