Sermon 6/14/20: Laughable (Pr. Craig Mueller)

Laugh with me! Join God’s dream to make the impossible possible. I love this quote from theologian Harvey Cox: “holy laughter is the gift of grace. It is the human spirit’s last defense against banality and despair. We praise of the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Sarah, Rachel, and Rebekka. Mary, Jesus, and Paul. God is faithful. You have a future. All will be well. All will be healed. It is the kind of joy we saw at George Floyd’s funeral and at the funeral of the Emmanuel Nine. Even with hearts breaking, we join the laughter of the universe! For Christ is risen. A good laugh, indeed.
