This Week's Sermon

Sorrow Mingles with Love

John 20:19-31

Rev. Barrett Owen

The story of Doubting Thomas is worth studying. It starts with sorrow. Thomas misses the big moment of when Jesus resurrects. His doubts are fueled by sorrow. Yet it is in his sorrow that he finds love. This pattern is still true today. It is in the midst of our sorrow that God’s love appears.
