Sermon: Keeping the Valve Open
In this short sermon clip, Greg Boyd talks about Paul’s writings on getting our reality to line up with what God says is real. The full sermon discusses how God’s design for creation is beautiful.

In addition, Greg gives a Kingdom response to the Boston Marathon bombings.
You can view the full sermon on the Woodland Hills sermon resource page.
