Message: “We want a king!” from The Rev. Dr. Kristine Blaess
The Rev. Dr. Kristine Blaess - November 26, 2023
We want a king!
Christ, our King, is the one who stepped up into his throne by first taking his place on the cross to suffer and die in disgrace. Christ, our crucified King, is the suffering servant, the Good Shepherd of the Sheep, the one who turns our ideas of power and greatness on their heads, and asks us to follow him on a path that feels perilous but is the only path to life. This is Jesus’ hope for us today – will we hear the voice of our shepherd today? And will we follow him as Christ our King?
