Our guest preacher today is Dr. Ken Sundet Jones, Professor of Theology and Philosophy at Grand View University in Des Moines, Iowa. His doctoral dissertation covered 16th-century German evangelical funeral preaching.

Music Highlights: The response to the word this week is Courtney’s “The Call” from our Adult Choir, joined by Andy Wilson on trumpet, Matt Mitchener on snare drum, and Caroline Evans on piano. This theme of calling is carried through many of our other songs, including “We are Called” from the hymnal and “Hear the Call of the Kingdom” from the Praise Team.
