Mcf Sermon Podcast

Pastor Kevin begins a new sermon series entitled, "enLIGHTENment".  He begins with the defining words spoken over Jesus at His baptism.  "You are my son, the beloved, in whom I am well pleased."  These same defining words are meant to define us as well.  The truest thing we could say about ourselves is that we are God's beloved children in whom God is well pleased.  Baptism is a naming.  It is a claiming of our true identity.  And it is a defiant act in which we refuse to be labeled any longer in anyway other than what God says is true of us.  The sermon ends with a video by Rachel Held Evans.
