STOCKI SERMON PODCAST - FINDING JESUS IN 21st CENTURY - in the NOVEL
20/08/2024
Finding Jesus in the culture, where at times you least expect him.
I am on a little self indulgent series at the end of this summer (it was summer - honest!) where I am looking at where Jesus appears in the novel, the song and the film.
This is part 1 where I look at the novel, Douglas Coupled and Claire Keegan heavily mentioned. I also look at how we should be dealing with such things.
There are many great quotes from novels and also from John Stott. Just one of his is wise and challenging:
“We refuse to become either so absorbed in the word, that we escape into it and fail to let it confront the world, or so absorbed in the world, that we conform to it and fail to subject it to the judgement of the word.”
We look at how God can decide where to speak and who to speak through and that the truth is not dependent on who writes or speaks it.
