Rev. Hockett's sermon emphasized the importance of moving beyond "dead orthodoxy" to a living faith that truly embodies God's love. He shared a personal story about navigating COVID restrictions at a restaurant, illustrating how following the letter of the law can sometimes miss the spirit of it.
Drawing from John Wesley's transformative experience at Aldersgate, Rev. Hockett reminded us that true faith combines correct beliefs with heartfelt love for God and neighbor. He encouraged us to be a missional people, actively loving and serving others, especially in these challenging times.
In essence, the world needs more people who love like Jesus.
