Found in Exile Part I: It’s Happening

"It's Happening" – Jeremiah 6:13-15, Luke 19:41-44

Part I of the Lenten sermon series, "Found in Exile."

Sermon by Dr. George C. Anderson from Transfiguration Sunday, February 27, 2022. "'Open your eyes and face it because it’s happening!' is [Jeremiah's] message. And right now, he offers no 'but.' It is not the time to jump quickly to, 'We’ll get over it.' It is not the time to speak of how lemonade is made or how a smile is the reverse of a frown, or how when a door closes a window might be found open. Yes, our whole sermon series will be about wonders and blessings that can be found in loss. But at the point of denial, the true prophet’s best work is to inspire grief over what was thought to be eternal… but is not. This hard moment can be the beginning of the miracle of a healing, and the beginning of a journey to real peace."
