All Saints Sunday, 2020
Pastor Rob’s sermon focuses on an unnoticed passage from the Old Testament: the burial of Abraham by Isaac and Ishmael.
This is a story of grief, fellowship and reconciliation amid division. It is a story we need to hear this All Saints as we grieve so much in 2020. It is a story we need to hear this All Saints as we will live in such a divided time.
Pastor Rob ends his sermon, not by asking whom you will vote for, but what will our story be? A decent into tribalism? Or a meeting of each other in grief, in the holy act of mutual consolation?
