Description:

Sermon start time: 25:24. Sermon end time: 48:27.
This sermon connects Advent, which recognizes how the Old Testament prophets and saints prepared for Christ, with how Duke's founders prepared for its current and future success. (Abstract created by Duke Divinity School staff.)
Key quotation: "The windows of medieval cathedrals often depict the writers of the gospels as sitting on the shoulders of the Hebrew prophets.....how is that for a definition of 'founders?'"
