Description

• Linda Morgan was a Master of Divinity student who went on to become a United Methodist minister. The service opens with a word of prayer (00:00-01:01). The first speaker reads a prayer of confession, and the second speaker reads from Isaiah 4:2-6 and John 14:15-31 (01:02-06:19). The choir leads in a song of worship (06:20-08:47). Linda Morgan opens her sermon by giving two examples of people she knows that confuse the character of God with the character of their parents to demonstrate that personal relationships are not perfect (08:48-10:36). She says that Jesus knows our personal flaws and confusion when it comes to knowing him, yet he shows his kindness to us by desiring to have an intimate relationship with us (10:37-12:40). She tells the story of her son going off alone in the store with the promise that they will me back up at the register counter to explain to the audience God’s and reliance and kindness towards us (12:41-15:55). Morgan states that God’s kindness and kinship toward us is given through Christ (15:56-19:25). She concludes her sermon by discussing how God’s kindness and kinship is currently present with us through the Holy Spirit (19:26-23:56). Morgan ends the service with a prayer (23:57-24:57).
