- Title:
- William H. Willimon - "Living Sacrifice" (September 2, 1990)
- Description:
-
Sermon start time: 24:40. Sermon end time: 45:45.
The preacher elaborates on how the self-serving spirit of the world allowed death to become the Lord of Abnormality, trapping and enslaving people. He argues that the hard truth is not about whether you will give your life, but to whom you will give it. He calls upon his audience to offer their lives as living sacrifices to God. (Abstract created by Duke Divinity School staff.)
Key quotation: "When the power of life appears in this Jew from Nazareth, named Jesus, systemic abnormality, to which we are always in danger of becoming accustomed, is thrown into utter disarray. I tell you, this is the power that's let loose here on a Sunday morning, when we're at our best. It is the power which summons each one of us by name to submit to transformation."
