Finding the Divine In the Midst of the Chaos Around Us

Preaching on Jesus's harsh, divisive words in Luke 12, the preacher argues that righteous anger at injustice; including anger provoked by current political events; can easily curdle into self-righteous judgment that divides community, kills curiosity, and blinds us to what God is doing. He calls hearers to keep naming what breaks the heart while also disciplining themselves to actively look for and name signs of the divine moving in the midst of the chaos.
