I was able to preach a sermon at Mill City Church (in Northeast Minneapolis), which is the church I call home. My sermon was part of a series on the Minor Prophets called The Books We Don’t Read, referring to the fact that many people in our churches don’t hardly read the minor prophets. My sermon in the series was on the prophet of Amos, specifically looking at the way that injustice is viewed as a failure of worship. Check it out below:
