a sermon from Fr. Nathan

Christ the King Sunday reminds us of a profound truth: Jesus reigns above all earthly powers. Instituted in 1926 as a response to rising authoritarianism, this day still speaks powerfully today. Unlike worldly rulers who divide and consume, Christ’s kingdom is built on mercy, not merit; rescue, not conquest. His rule is cosmic yet deeply personal—He reconciles all things through the cross and invites us into a life of peace and eternal hope. As ambassadors of His kingdom, we live differently, witnessing to a better way in a broken world. Christ is King—now and forever.
