Rosie Perera - “Moral Outrage”
Sermon Recording: Download
TOPIC
Moral outrage is a righteous indignation on behalf of others, distinguishing it from anger at being aggrieved personally. Vigilantes and derogatory pundits are negative examples, since vengeance belongs to the Lord. Societal progress can be promoted by recognizing injustice, but only if we are spurred to action towards solving the problem. Armchair activism is not only insufficient but can be emotionally self-destructive. Will we do as Jesus demonstrated: lament, fast, pray, and channel our outrage into a productive response? [KH]
