Less Smoke, More Mirrors: Justice, Humility, and Hope in Troubled Times

In this sermon, Rev. Dr. R. Douglas Throop reflects on the prophetic words of Micah and their urgent meaning for our world today. Moving beyond empty displays of religion and power, he calls listeners toward a deeper faith rooted in justice, kindness, humility, and courageous hope. With insight drawn from scripture, public life, and the struggle for a more compassionate society, this message invites us to imagine a different future, one where identity is affirmed, power is held accountable, and faith is lived through action.
