Sermon: After the Tomb, The Table, Luke 24:44-53

5/24/2009

Why do you believe the good news is good enough news to share?  In her book Unbinding the Gospel, Martha Grace Reese asks this question: What fills your pitcher and causes it to overflow? “If you believe that hell or heaven is a consequence of a decision to become or not become a Christian, that may fill your pitcher almost to the top! If you don’t believe that, you have to have your pitcher filled with many other reasons to get it to the top .... What is filling your pitcher? Is it overflowing?” She makes the point that our desire to share the good news comes from our genuine belief that we are filled with The good news. We do believe the good news is good enough news to share.  May the Lord filled us with boldness and love!
