Title:
William H. Willimon - "Paying Attention to God" (August 27, 2000)
Description:

  • Sermon start time: (Part 1) 0:12. Sermon end time: (Part 1) 20:34.

  • Asking his disciples to eat his flesh and drink his blood is a weird statement made by Jesus. The preacher believes Jesus deliberately speaks offensively with the intent to draw people’s attention. Criticizing how modern culture has used numbness as a self-defense system against sin and suffering in the world, the preacher asks for paying attention to God and consciousness of life through participation in God’s work in creation.
