Title:
Norman Neaves - "Don't Be Too Religious!" (March 25, 1984)
Description:

  • We should be careful not to become so preoccupied with religion that we forget our mission to the world. God does not want to be the ultimate reason for our lives; rather, God wants to be the source of our strength to love and serve a suffering world. (Abstract created by Duke Divinity School staff.)

  • Sermon start time: (Part 1) 40:55. Sermon end time: (Part 2) 23:17.

  • Key quotation: “We don’t have to have an answer for every question that arises. We don’t have to have a solution to every problem that presents itself. We only need to be human, vulnerable, broken with the world, and willing to suffer in the midst of a suffering humankind.”
