The Very Rev. Christopher A...

  2. 10.30am Choral Eucharist
  3. The Dream After the Tears

Sermon starts at 29:29. 

Joseph’s story is one of betrayal, suffering, forgiveness, and the surprising faithfulness of God. Drawing on Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, this sermon explores how Joseph refuses to let his wounds define him or dictate the future. Instead, he discovers that human brokenness may wound God’s dream, but cannot finally defeat it. In Christ, God continues to draw life from what is broken, restore communion, and invite us to become a people who live as signs of God’s reconciling future.
