"Healing Our Image of God" -- John 3:1-17 (Second Sunday in Lent)
from First Presbyterian Church of San Anselmo · host Rev. Scott Clark
As we continue in our Lenten sermon series -- "In the Desert, a Healing Spring" -- this sermon turns to the text of John 3:16 for a healing word. We unpack some of the cultural baggage that follows this familiar text, and specifically the harm that has come from an exclusionary reading. We then look to the text and affirm that God so loves the whole world that God invites us into the healing life of Christ -- eternal life, right here, right now.
