Sermon for Fifth Sunday of Easter (Year A)
Trinity Lutheran Church – Madison, WI
May 10th, 2020

Preaching Text: John 14:1-14

Beloved of God, grace and peace to you from our mothering God and from our comforting Christ. Amen.

“Do not let your hearts be troubled. Believe in God. Believe also in me. In my Father’s house, there are many dwelling places.”

I’ve most often heard these words at funerals. There’s something powerful about hearing the voice of Jesus say, “Do not let your hearts be troubled” – especially in those troubling days.
