The Longing to Go Home

Nov 10, 2024  •  The Rev. Billy Cerveny

Every great song, a former Nashville songwriter observes, touches a longing for home. Drawing on Hebrews 9:24 and the larger story of Scripture, the sermon hears that ache as an echo of Eden, where heaven and earth once overlapped. The Holy of Holies was patterned on that garden, Christ has entered the true sanctuary in heaven, and Holy Communion offers a foretaste of the restored Eden promised in Revelation 21.
