Resurrection MCC Weekly Sermon|Gentle Strength: Restoring / Rev. Dwayne Johnson Episode
With the screaming of talk radio and the mudslinging of politics, it is time for a restoration of civility through gentle strength. Gentleness is not weakness. In Galatians 6, Paul calls Christians to move beyond the angry and divisive rhetoric of fear-based religion to a restoration of love-based Christian maturity. Rev. Dwayne invites each individual to decide on a specific action that will help restore wholeness to the church, community, or world.
