Title:
William H. Willimon - "Where Is God?" (December 1, 1996)
Description:

  • Sermon start time: (Part 1) 0:09. Sermon end time: (Part 1) 19:50.

  • This sermon talks about how to hear God’s voice and receive revelation. The preacher argues that God does not shout, but whispers to people for three reasons: God’s direct speech is unbearable for people; the faithful are revealed as those who hear the subtleties of God’s voice; low voice requires attentive hearing and response. The preacher offers Advent as a season for emptying worldly noise and listening attentively for God’s tender voice. (Abstract created by Duke Divinity School staff.)
