Sermon Audio 3/11/2018, 2nd Sunday of Lent B

Lutheran Church of the Savior, Kalamazoo 

Second Sunday of Lent, Lectionary Year B

Ephesians 2:1-10 

Today's lesson from Ephesians offers perhaps the Bible's clearest explanation of how Lutherans understand God's work in Jesus. In today's sermon we all talk about how we've seen God intervene in the places where people need God's grace the most. This sermon features audience participation, so I hope that doesn't mess up the experience of listening online too badly.
