This week's scripture lesson

(St. Paul's Cathedral, London)
This week's sermon continues our readings from the epistle of Paul to the Romans, 12:1-8.
"Paul's theology, preaching and letter writing all had one goal: to bring his audience to an understanding of faith in its Christian form and to commit themselves to a life of discipleship to Jesus Christ. He proclaimed primarily, if not exclusively, an ethical gospel and theology made possible by the living Christ. It was good news for ethical living." - Jack Sherman on Midrash
