Sermon Connection: Jealousy, Favoritism and Mercy that Sets Us Free

‍Sermon Connection: Jealousy, Favoritism, and the Mercy that Sets Us Free

In last week’s Sunday sermon, Rev. Alice Grant reflects on the destructive power of jealousy through a childhood story, the account of Joseph and his brothers, and the ways comparison can rob us of joy. Exploring the themes of envy or jealousy, favoritism, sibling rivalry, grief and mercy, she reminds us that God works through imperfect people and offers each of us the assurance that we are enough and deeply loved. The sermon concludes with an invitation to examine our own habits of favoritism and shake them off by embracing the generous, impartial love of God in our families, friendships, and communities.
