Rev. Tim dives deep into a challenging section of scripture often called the “Missionary Discourse.”

In this Father’s Day sermon during Global Pride Month, we explore some of Jesus’s toughest words—including his call to love him above our own families. But did Jesus intend to exclude and divide? Far from it.

This message reveals that Jesus’s true ministry was one of radical inclusion. By breaking ancient societal codes to share meals with strangers, the poor, the marginalized, and the “unclean,” he was intentionally upending traditional power structures to welcome everyone to the table.
