A greeting, some CliffsNotes, & a nugget of good news from Paul’s letter to the Romans
It’s all in that (long!) title: Pastor Megan begins her sermon with a greeting, based on Paul’s greeting to the gentile Jesus-followers in Rome, then offers some CliffsNotes on Paul and his letter to the Romans, and concludes by sharing a bit of good news from these opening words of Paul’s letter – good news of connection experienced and embodied across many miles.
