The God Who Finds the One

Sep 14, 2025  •  The Rev. Billy Cerveny

Everyone is lost, the irreligious rebel and the self-righteous churchgoer alike, and God saves by coming to look for us. Through the parables of the lost sheep and lost coin, the sermon traces how shame drives us to numb ourselves, play dress-up or blame others. Repentance follows God's kindness rather than purchasing it, a point Rev. Cerveny illustrates with his own feeling of superiority in a recent social media reaction.
