The last Sunday of this liturgical year
I was torn between referencing the end of the liturgical year and something about kings for this week’s title. This dilemma will make more sense when you listen to the sermon called, “This is the king I want.” Other than making a remark or two about geo-political kings the bulk of the sermon is me revisiting the last time I preached on Ephesians 1:15-23.
One of the things I am trying to address coming out of this passage is the relationship between king and subject, namely the responsibilities and privileges the relationship has. It is easy to lose sight of one or the other when we consider being a subject, or a king for that matter although that’s harder for most of us to imagine. We do have responsibilities to God to be sure but there are privileges coming along with them and that’s what I was talking about today.
Blessings,
