A Conversation on Preaching from the book of Romans with Eric Barreto, Mary Hulst, Najla Kassab, Luke Powery, Anne Zaki, moderated by Scott Hoezee
The Symposium on 91ÁÔÆæ 2021 is not going to look or feel like any past events as the pandemic moves us to new online platforms and events. But we still want to anchor ourselves to a text for some of our worship services and this year Romans 8 seemed right. Few chapters contain such soaring words of both Gospel comfort as well as Gospel hope. We have the comfort and assurance of salvation and of no condemnation in Christ and we have the Spirit to transform us and, through us, to transform our lives and maybe even our societies in these unsettled, broken times. Nothing can separate us from the love of God, Paul shouts and sings at the end of Romans 8. And nothing can keep us from comfort, assurance, hope and yes, also joy during even these difficult days.
