God Never Closes a Door Without Opening a Window: Jesus Never Said That!
This Sunday, we continue the new sermon series that examines common—but incorrect—assumptions about Jesus' sayings, while also exploring related sayings that are more accurate and, perhaps, even more challenging. This week, Pastor Earl’s sermon will take on the Christian cliché, “God never closes a door without opening a window.” Our scripture reading will be the well-known story of “Doubting Thomas,” and together we will reflect on how this passage offers a deeper, more relational vision of how God is present with us—one that may challenge the implication of God behind the cliché.
