Sunday 12th April 2026 // Morning // Luke 9:37-48 // Greatness

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Like 9:37-48 at morning worship on Sunday 12th A 2026 in First Ards. Coming down from the mount of Transfiguration, Jesus meets a scene of confusion, suffering and failure: a desperate father, a tormented boy, disciples who can’t help and followers who still don’t understand the cross. This sermon shows how the glory of Christ is seen not just on the mountain but in the valley, where he rebukes evil, restores the boy and keeps walking towards Jerusalem. It also shows how far the disciples still have to go and how Jesus redefines greatness, not as status or importance, but as humble, cross-shaped service.
