    This sermon explores the concept of treasure in earthen vessels, within the concept of preaching the gospel

    This message is about vessels! I am sure you must have guessed from the title.

    If you want to meet Jesus, you won’t find him at the pinnacle of earthly successes; you have to climb down to the Cornerstone-Jesus is always at the bottom of things, holding everyone else up.

    Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. 7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. 1 Peter 5:6-7 There are four points here, and, I believe, they are connected.

    We gather together today in the wake of the terrible terrorist attacks in London - violence that I suspect has left none of us unaffected.

    What do you do when the band stops playing and the “Amen’s” are no longer shouted? What do you do when it seems like faith has been misguided? Consider the condition of the disciples on the day after Easter.
