Title:
Perry Miller - "Caught in the Middle" (November 12, 1978)
Description:

  • Sermon start time: (Part 1) 34:28. Sermon end time: (Part 1) 56:02.

  • Addressing those who find themselves in the discouraging "middle places" of faith, this sermon weaves the "dry bones" passage of Ezekiel with the Screwtape Letters of C. S. Lewis. Drawing from these two sources, the preacher urges the congregation to move beyond the complacency of "mild religion" and into a deeper love for Christ and a deeper commitment to justice in the world. (Abstract created by Duke Divinity School staff.)
