Rev. Yost delivers a sermon on the challenging call of 1 John 5. Using St. Ignatius of Loyola's "Meditation on Two Standards," we'll explore what it means to choose between faith in Christ and faith in the standards of our modern world. This message is a heartfelt call to discern our loyalties and courageously live out God's liberating love, no matter how difficult the path.
Reflection Questions:
- What are the "banners" or "standards" in your life that compete for your ultimate loyalty with your faith in Christ?
- Thinking about the "fruit of the Spirit," what is one small way you can intentionally embody God's love this week to transform a space you occupy, whether at work, at home, or in your community?
