On Reformation Sunday, Elder Matt Brown asks the question, why do we still remember it 500 years later? The answer is that the principles and doctrines put forth by the reformers are still important and relevant – and often in dispute – even today. The text is from Romans 1:15-18.

Luke 13:1-9 – Repent or Perish
Rather than looking down on those who have gone through hard times and concluding that we must be better than them, our response should be to repent of our many sins. Jesus makes this clear in Luke 13:1-9.
