Fifth Sunday in Easter

What it means to live in and through Jesus

Collect: Fifth Sunday of Easter

Almighty God, whom truly to know is everlasting life: Grant us so perfectly to know your Son Jesus Christ to be the way, the truth, and the life, that we may steadfastly follow his steps in the way that leads to eternal life; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.

Acts 8:26-40 . . . Philip explains to the Ethiopian eunuch the good news of Jesus

Psalm 22:24-30 . . .  The Cry of the forsaken.  Do you agree that whatever survives the ordeal is neither flippant nor naïve, but strong and sure?

1 John 4:7-21 . . . true faith becomes visible through the obedience of active love

John 15:1-8 . . . like branches connected to a vine, we abide with him and experience great fruitfulness

Sermon for the fifth Sunday of Easter.
