The Sermon - The Unquiet Heart: Romans 5 and a Theology of Hope
Theology is written in human experience — not in church councils, but in lives. In this sermon on Romans 5:3-5, we meet Jürgen Moltmann, a teenager sent to war who encountered God through scripture in a prisoner of war camp and went on to shape modern Christian thought with a profound theology of hope. Rooted in the resurrection and resistant to despair, authentic Christian hope transforms how we live and act in the present.
The sermon is available here.
