To Not Lose Heart - The Rev. Mike Angell

Don't Lose Heart. That's the simple, urgent command at the center of Jesus's parable of the persistent widow. In this sermon, We're challenged to rethink this familiar story, shifting the focus from the unjust judge to the persistent woman. The "Santa Persista" whose "pluck and courage" force change. Drawing on the work of Howard Thurman and Richard Rohr, The Rev. Mike Angell argues that true Christianity is not a system of "order" or a set of rules, but a thread of faith that carries us through seasons of "disorder". This is an invitation to let your faith be stretched between what was and what can be, and to embrace the persistent justice-seeking the Holy Spirit busy re-making faith across the globe.
