Every day I drive out of the driveway of my neighborhood, and I take a right, and I go past the Dutch Bros shack. And it still absolutely boggles my brain. There is always a line circling all the way around the shack, through their parking lot and out into the road. Every single day. And it doesn’t matter the time of the day or the night. 7 pm. People need their coffee! The line is always there. People need their coffee. Why is that? I tell you what, it’s not because of nutrition. And it’s probably not even because you’re tired. It’s because you want to experience the joy of being human. You wanna take a deliciously sugary cup of coffee and let your taste buds experience that. That’s one of the joys of being human in God’s world. To receive his gifts in a body. To touch, to taste, to hear, to see.
This Sunday's sermon takes a look at a Gospel text- Luke 20:27-40. There we will see a God who is greater than logic, greater than reason, greater than we can possibly think or imagine. Great enough that he raises even our bodies so that we can taste, see, know that he is good.
