In Luke 20, Jesus quotes Psalm 118: "The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone." But do we today recognize our own foundational, essential people? Rev.

Preached during virtual worship on March 14, 2021 at St. Pauls UCC, a progressive Christian church in Chicago. Please join us for worship Sundays a 10AM central:  https://spucc.org/streaming
