In this sermon, Fr. Matthias Shehad explores the role of St. John the Baptist as the forerunner who prepares the way for the coming of the Lord. He explains why it is important to prepare people's hearts and how this preparation enables them to receive Christ’s message.
Fr. Matthias outlines six ways to prepare the way for the Lord: preaching repentance and leading by example, serving others with kindness, praying for those around us, teaching and mentoring believers, building meaningful relationships, and boldly proclaiming God’s truth. He offers biblical examples including Moses, Ruth, and Elijah to illustrate these practices.
The message challenges listeners to reflect on their own role in sharing the Gospel and invites them to actively participate in drawing others closer to Christ through love, service, patience, and courage.
