Learning from the Lord is a collection of sermons Dr. Sauser has preached during his twenty-seven-plus years in pastoral service to the Union Springs Presbyterian Church (USA) in Union Springs, Alabama. Like many small-town and rural churches across the United States, the Union Springs Presbyterian Church comprises a small but lively congregation with a good understanding of the beliefs and traditions of the Christian church but a hunger to learn more about the truths revealed in God’s written Word; the context in which they were inspired by the Holy Spirit and written down by faithful evangelists; their meaning to the early Christians who were first exposed to them; their meaning to modern-day Christians as our rule of faith and life; and how we can apply these biblical truths in our worship and life today.What does God expect of us as we seek to assist in bringing the kingdom of heaven to earth? What would Jesus do? How do we live by the law of love as Jesus commands? How do we spread the gospel to the ends of the earth, starting from our own home, church, and community? How does our loving God reconcile us to himself, forgive our sins, and grant us eternal life in paradise? How can we glorify and enjoy God forever?
Learning from the Lord is not a scholarly commentary, but the sermons contained herein are informed by biblical scholars from the earliest days of the church through today. This present collection, volume 2, contains sermons drawn from Acts (a book of history), the epistles of Paul and the other evangelists (books of doctrine), and Revelation, the risen Christ’s love letter to his church.
In this book, you will find some sermons that closely track the scriptures, some that follow a classic three-point format, and even a few first-person testimonies. Jesus taught through parables, and at times, so does Dr. Sauser. The sermons in this volume are intended to aid faithful Christians in their sincere efforts to understand and be guided by our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
