Whom Do You Serve?

Adam Fischer
Student Body President

May 11, 2007
Genesis 11:1-9
Romans 12:1-8.

God calls all of us to live in a diverse world. While our community may reflect some signs of living into this call, it is important that we continue to work toward God's call for even greater diversity. This call toward diversity may lead us into tension and discomfort as we learn new ways to live with one another. Listen to the sermon.

John 13: 1-35

How are we to live into the diversity that we want in our community? Dean Hester addresses this emotionally charged issue as we move from the easy beginning of good intentions to the hard road of loving the "inconvenient differences" among us. Listen to the sermon.
