Title:

D. Elton Trueblood - "The Indebted Life" (September 18, 1983)

Description:

Sermon start time: (Part 1) 30:04. Sermon end time: (Part 1) 47:23.
Based on Paul's letter to the Romans, this sermon muses on the many ways in which we are all permanently in the debt of those who have come before us and those whom we have never met; it calls those who hear to respond to this indebtedness with gratitude and with simple acts of service and encouragement.
