Pastor Gail Whitcome Linstrom – “Our Witness Is Love” – Verdugo Community Church April 23, 2023

In her sermon Pastor Gail continues the Easter story with the Luke 24 account of Jesus seeking out the larger group of his disciples on Easter evening. He affirms that he is truly alive (not a ghost) and that they are to continue to have a living relationship with him. Jesus again reminds them of the Scriptural prophesies about the Messiah and assures them that the story is not ending, only beginning. Jesus came to give them – and us – a new and abundant life in the here and now. “Our Witness is love” if we live in relationship with Jesus and spread the Good News of his love by reaching out to others and inviting them to experience the Living Lord’s presence and his salvation.
