Redemption Lutheran Church Sermons

Religion & Spirituality


In 250 AD what became known as the Plague of Cyprian broke out. It lasted for 13 years. Many scholars now identify it as something like Ebola. Cyprian, the Bishop of Carthage, preached a series sermons throughout this time. In these sermons he encouraged his listeners to care for the sick who were still living. A colleague described how Christians, “Heedless of danger … took charge of the sick, attending to their every need.” What would compel these Christians to put themselves in the path of danger? They knew the truth which Martha learned in this account from John 11. In this account Jesus teaches us that he has us on the road to resurrection and we have life now.Support the show (https://nnyredemption.breezechms.com/give/online)
