More Than Words

In this episode of Faith at Work, Pastor Harry Jarrett of Pleasant Valley Church of the Brethren in Weyers Cave, Virginia reflects on John 20 and the powerful truth that the life of Jesus cannot be contained by words alone. While the recorded words of Jesus in the Gospels can be read in just a few hours, the works of Jesus overflow the pages of scripture and continue into the life of the church today.This sermon explores the difference between admiring what Jesus said and actually doing what Jesus did. From the locked room where the risen Christ breathes peace on frightened disciples, to the ongoing call to continue the work of Jesus peacefully, simply, and together, this message invites listeners to see faith not as mere belief or correct doctrine, but as embodied action.What if the story of Jesus is not a closed archive, but a living account still being written through acts of mercy, welcome, healing, forgiveness, and love? This episode calls the church to move beyond talk and into practice, carrying forward the work of Christ in everyday life.Listen, reflect, and join the conversation at:https://pleasantvalleyalive.org/https://discipleship.pleasantvalleyalive.org/If this episode encourages you, please like, share, and comment.
