Reformation Sunday was this past Sunday and we spent the day watching football and praying for one another. We're sharing a sermon from last year that was originally preached on Oct. 29, 2017 by Sara Wolbrecht during our Chunk of Change fall series.
_______________________________________________________
At Salt House we believe in radical inclusivity - any and all people are welcome, especially because of the diversity they bring to our community. We believe this stance to be congruent with the revolutionary love of Jesus, as well as the reforming work of Martin Luther - a Roman Catholic friar who, 500 years ago next week, on October 31, 1517, began a revolution that forever changed the trajectory of the western church. This Sunday, we'll acknowledge this historical moment and explore what it means that Salt House is in fact a Lutheran (Evangelical Luthern Church in America) church - and why that matters for us as people who are changed to bring change in our world today, together.

Where does Jesus stand?

The parable of the great banquet ends in a strange and violent way. It causes us to raise our eyebrows and wonder how this is Good News? Guest preacher Katy McCallum Sachse invites us to recognize the character of God in this parable as something that is truly surprising.
