Drawing on such canonical sources as Shakespeare, Arrested Development, U2, and many more, this collection of sermons connects the Good News about Jesus to our everyday life with wit and grace. Presenting Scripture's own sober view of things, Paul Walker diagnoses the pain, guilt, and failure that so often plague us. But amid that bleak account of our experience, the preacher's punch line is always the same: Christ died and rose again to heal, pardon, and free us. For every circumstance, these sermons remind us of the Gospel's sustaining hope.
