Hear the messages that Father Jeremiah delivers each week
to the congregation of Grace Anglican.
When Jesus sent the 70/72 disciples out to all the places that he would go, the receiving of them was a receiving of himself and the rejection of them was a rejection of himself. What does this mean? It means that Jesus is going with his people wherever he sends them. He goes with us that we might be strengthened in all that we do by his working through us.

Baptism and new life go together. But how does it fit? Does new life begin inside of me or is it something that comes from the outside for me to receive and lay hold of? St. Paul directs our thoughts about this in Romans 6. Father Jeremiah explains this passage by telling us about the life that comes from the outside and enters in that we might come into an identity in Christ.
