God's Weirdos (1 Peter 2:1-10)
from Westlake United Methodist Church Hosted by Westlake United Methodist Church
Continuing the Along the Way series, Pastor LyAnna Johnson digs into 1 Peter's call to be "a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation," and makes the case that holy really just means set apart, a little bit weird. She traces that idea back to John Wesley's own eccentric discipline and the Methodist practice of works of piety and works of mercy, while drawing a clear line between being called to a higher standard and being tempted toward a higher status. It's an honest, funny look at what it costs, and what it's worth, to follow Christ differently than the world expects, and why none of us have to do it alone. Sermon date: May 3, 2026
