SERMON: Death, Resurrection and Pumpkin Spice

Guest speaker, Zach Dubord, explores our current connections to, or meaning from, Romans 18-25:

“I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed. For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the freedom and glory of the children of God.

We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time…”

Explore the connection between this bit of scripture and the current time in Zach’s full sermon.
