A sermon, based on the scripture read in worship, proclaims the good news of the risen Lord and presents the gift and calling of the gospel. Through the sermon, we encounter Jesus Christ in God’s word, are equipped to follow him more faithfully, and are inspired to proclaim the gospel to others through our words and deeds.
