Glorious Ruins

Jul 6, 2025 • The Rev. Billy Cerveny

Hurt people hurt people, and conflict distorts how we see ourselves and others. From Paul's call in Galatians 5 and 6 to keep in step with the Spirit and restore one another gently, the sermon tells of a boyhood bully whose father heckled him drunkenly from the sidelines, turning contempt into compassion. Francis Schaeffer's phrase glorious ruins, pictured in the ruins of Split, Croatia, invites us to look for God's glory in one another.
