About this episode

The sermon reflects on the call to speak about hope in a fearful world with gentleness and reverence.

What does it mean to speak about hope in a fearful and reactive world? In this week’s sermon from 1 Peter, we reflect on the call to always be ready to give an account for the hope within us, but to do so with gentleness and reverence. This message explores a way of living that is grounded rather than defensive, faithful rather than performative. A way of bearing witness through humility, courage, and quiet confidence in the resurrection. Faith after Easter is not only about what we believe. It is about the spirit in which we live and speak. Part of the Eccentrics: Keeping It Real After Easter series. Sermon by Rev. Amos J. Disasa. Subscribe for weekly sermons from First Presbyterian Church of Dallas. fpcdallas.org
