Living in light of the resurrection – 1 Corinthians 15:12-34 Sermon
How should we live in the light of the resurrection? This is a sermon I preached at church last Sunday (16th Jan). Although I didn’t speak much directly about covid, it fits in with the general principles of how we live that we are looking at.
Although this is available on YouTube, the sermon is audio-only so you might prefer to listen using the podcast instead. All episodes of Sacred Musings are posted on both the podcast and YouTube.
