In the sermon "Sacred Unexpected," we will examine Luke 6:17-26, where Jesus challenges conventional wisdom by pronouncing blessings on the poor, the hungry, and the marginalized. This passage reveals that God's favor often rests on those whom society overlooks, highlighting the sacredness in unexpected places and people. Drawing from Rob Bell's themes of finding the divine in the ordinary, we will explore how these radical teachings invite us to rethink our perceptions of success and worth. Ultimately, we are called to embrace the sacred unexpected in our own lives, welcoming the marginalized and recognizing the beauty and value in those who may not fit societal norms.
