Description

How far can we dream of a world set right? What can we imagine of creation on the other side of salvation? In this episode we continue our look at the vision of salvation that God provides through the prophet Isaiah. And what we see is a coming king of such justice can compassion that his reign leads to a complete transformation of creation. Enmities that we'd never dream could be healed will be reconciled. And hostilities we think are simply facts of life will be turned to life-giving friendships. In short, we get a glimpse of what life looks like when love wins. The biblical passage referenced in this sermon is:  Isaiah 11:1-10 (NRSV) What to listen to Kirk's Advent/Christmas playlist? Check out Christmas at 2AM on Spotify!
