Sermons From Good Shepherd Lutheran Church In Raleigh, Nc

Gospel - Mark 10:35-45 Jesus says to them, “you’re playing the wrong game.” It’s not about the end game. That is all taken care of. In the end, whatever surprises come at us, we are held in God, who is pure grace and mercy and love. In the end, whatever it is, it will all be ok, somehow. In the end, life wins. Good wins. God wins. The end game is all sorted out. Our game is now. So, let’s play. Let’s love like Jesus wants us to. And let’s meet Jesus out there serving: in those who are working hard, and those who are being served…on the edges of our society, not at the right and left hands of power. On the margins of our comfort zones, not in the security of the familiar. This is the God who will save us…the God we meet where we least expect to.
