Sermon: “Dear Pharisees and Prodigals” from Dan Mitchum

What does it take to be truly spiritual? A man named Simeon the Stylite thought he found the answer. Around the year 423, he constructed a ten-foot pillar on the edge of the Syrian desert, climbed to the top, and lived on it for the next six years. He explained that he was simply a Christian who wanted to commune with God in solitude, free from worldly distractions. Living on top of a pole in the desert was his way of separating himself from sin and consecrating himself to God. In Galatians 6, Paul teaches that true spirituality isn’t about isolating ourselves from others. It’s about living in an authentic Christ-centered community where we love one another and bear each other’s burdens. Join us as Paul shows us what true—and practical—spirituality really is.
