The Day a Demon Came to Church

Here is an Epiphany sermon from 1991. It is printed in black with yellow highlighting.

This sermon is one of the only sermons that I recall seeing so far that has a lot of references to demons, which is likely due to the gospel text from the Fourth Sunday After the Epiphany of Year B in the Revised Common Lectionary. In that “spirit”, I’ve included a 14th century painting that depicts Jesus casting out the unclean spirit that was mentioned in this Gospel reading. The painting is “Jesus casts out the unclean spirit” by Herman de Limbourg.
