Westminster Presbyterian Church, Alexandria Va

"The truth is that all of us come to worship – at least in large measure – because we want to feel better: about ourselves, our family, our work, our health, our world, the condition of our souls and psyches. If we are willing to confess and face the reality of Sin, we want to do so only followed by a full-throated assurance of pardon. In this series on the crucifixion of Christ, I want to stress that we can only face the awfulness of the crucifixion if we understand the power of Sin and Evil the cross overcomes." Rev. Dr. Larry Hayward preaches on Reformation Sunday. The Scripture lesson comes from Genesis 3:1-7; Psalm 51:2, 4, 12-13; Romans 5:12, 14, 15b, 18-19.
