I have posted today’s sermon on my sermon blog. It’s the second in my Easter series of sermons on “An Easter Church” — based on Luke 24:13-35 and entitled “An Easter Church Is On Fire”!

Here’s a portion of it:

Friends – one of the marks of an “Easter Church” – a Church that is filled with the joy and power of the resurrection of Christ – and that boldly does the work of Christ in the world – is that it is “on fire”!
“On fire” for Christ!
“On fire” for God!
“On fire” for doing God’s work and sharing the joy of the risen Christ with each other and the world.
An “Easter Church” is on fire!
An “Easter Church” is on fire!
“On fire” for Christ!
“On fire” for God!
“On fire” for doing God’s work and sharing the joy of the risen Christ with each other and the world.
There is a report of a fire in the Church
There is a report of a fire in the Church
But – is it a false alarm?
Like Cleopas and his friend after recognizing Christ —
We can let the risen Christ touch our lives —
You can let the risen Christ touch your life – and you can be an “Easter Christian” — filled with the joy of the risen Christ and sharing that joy with everyone you know and in everything you say and do.
You can let the risen Christ make a difference in how you live.
You don’t have to live without a commitment to God.
You don’t have to live in the old ways – you can live in new and exciting ways.
You can be “on fire” for the risen Christ – and doing His work with joy and enthusiasm.
We can all be “on fire” for Christ!
This Church can be “on fire” for Christ!
