Title:
William H. Willimon - "A Party? And during Lent?" (March 26, 1995)
Description:

  • Sermon start time: (Part 1) 0:13. Sermon end time: (Part 1) 21:35.

  • Expounding on the paradoxical act of partying for the prodigal son and many other occasions where parties are usually considered inappropriate, the preacher argues that parties are not meant to affirm wrong deeds or miserable situations, but rather, to celebrate the forgiveness and hope that God offers unexpectedly in Jesus Christ. (Abstract created by Duke Divinity School staff.)
