Stages of Discipleship

This is the outline I preached from at St Stephen's in Hurst. Audio is on the right sidebar in the PodBean Player. 

Stages of Discipleship
Sermon Easter 2C

Movement in the Readings – LOTS

Locked Room – Praise Psalm – Writing Letters to Others to tell what God has done – Teaching and Getting into Trouble for it

Fear – Adoration – Excitement – Responsibility of making more Disciples

How do we move from one to another?
Collect: How do we show forth in our lives what we profess in our faith?
Lenten Discipline?

Where are you?
Where is St Stephen’s?

Jesus blesses US today – did you hear it? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have come to believe – that’s US. Take that blessing – be emboldened to move to the next stage.

Alleluia. Christ is risen!

The Lord is risen indeed. Alleluia!
